Pope Paul VI - Season 5 - Popes and Science- Ep3
Pope Paul VI
In this season of Science and Faith we look at how the successors of Peter, not only as rock of the Church but also as men and individuals, have engaged and dialogued with the fields of science and technology as part of their duty in the complex task of shepherding and illuminating human pursuits in the light of the Catholic Faith.
Our guest, Dr Rory Fox, began by delving into St Paul VI's background and his relationship with science (e.g. his response to the Apollo 11 Moon landing and the pronouncements he made to the Pontifical Academy of sciences). For many, St Paul VI is synonymous with three things: Vatican II, the encyclical Humanae Vitae, and the topic of contraception, which were discussed at length in this episode. Finally, a caller posed a question to Dr Fox regarding the impact on the unknown and detrimental side effects of the contraceptive pill on women's health.
