Overheard

Overheard just moments ago at my house...

Me: "You don't take cookies without asking, honey. It's Nadia, naughty."

(I meant, "It's naughty, Nadia.")

The Church's Teaching on Marriage

Marriage, then, is far from being the effect of chance or the result of the blind evolution of natural forces. It is in reality the wise and provident institution of God the Creator, whose purpose was to effect in man His loving design. As a consequence, husband and wife, through that mutual gift of themselves, which is specific and exclusive to them alone, develop that union of two persons in which they perfect one another, cooperating with God in the generation and rearing of new lives.

"Marriage and conjugal love are by their nature ordained toward the procreation and education of children. Children are really the supreme gift of marriage and contribute in the highest degree to their parents' welfare."

-Humanae Vitae, Encyclical Letter of Pope Paul VI
