Comments on: Video – Roving Reporter #95: Dawn Eden on Pre-Vatican II Morality http://airmaria.com/2010/01/13/video-roving-reporter-95-dawn-eden-on-pre-vatican-ii-morality/ Bringing the Immaculate to the World Sun, 20 May 2012 02:26:17 -0400 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Dawn Eden http://airmaria.com/2010/01/13/video-roving-reporter-95-dawn-eden-on-pre-vatican-ii-morality/comment-page-1/#comment-31054 Dawn Eden Wed, 03 Feb 2010 16:57:05 +0000 http://1332957984#comment-31054 Susan, Father Angelo Mary foresaw your objection during my video interview and gave me the option of doing a retake. I let it stand because (1) Pope John Paul II's pre-papal writings do not carry the weight of magisterial pronouncements--that is, they are only on the level of bishops' writings, not papal or conciliar ones, and (2) even if it could be said that Wojtyla was responding to puritanism in the 1950s, Christopher West's point is still flawed, because he implies that the world was equally in "need" of a response to puritanism when John Paul II articulated the TOB, which was well _after_ the sexual revolution. There were many problems in the world that needed addressing when the pope gave his Wednesday catechesis, but by that point puritanism was not terribly high on the list.

For example, his book, Love and Responsibilty first published in 1960, along with other works. It is as much a part of pre-Vatican II as it is post-Vatican II.

EXCELLENT interview! I thank you. Dawn addresses my concerns about the now infamous West comment and the issues behind it. At about 19 minutes into the video, she cuts to the CORE of my concerns as a father regarding the plethora of TOB 'prophets' out there who with good intention do more harm than good for the Church. Ave Maria! Pascendi I only just got around to watching this now. EXCELLENT interview!
