In the lecture Fr. Perricone defends the Catholic doctrine on marriage and children. Fr Perricone anchors this talk with the encyclicals Humane Vitae and Casti Connubi given by the Holy Mother Church to defend the sanctity of marriage and to reaffirm that the procreation of children is the natural and holy consequence of the married state. Throughout the talk, Fr. Perricone provides a historical perspective on the changing societal attitudes towards contraception and abortion and demonstrates that with the acceptance of these practices, secular culture has forsaken the Natural Moral Laws, which have goverenced humanity since the garden of Eden.
