To conclude the Jubilee of Families, Leo XIV celebrated Eucharist today and reflected on marriage in his homily.
He
described relationships as free and liberating bonds among humans -
sometimes "betrayed": "For example, whenever freedom is invoked not to
give life but to take it away, not to succor but to harm."
Leo
XIV also quoted the 1968 encyclical Humanae Vitae, which opposed
contraception.
(After electing the leader of the Pontifical Academy for Life, who does not object to euthanasia or contraception)
He explained that "the Church tells us that today's world
needs the conjugal covenant in order to know and accept God's love, and
to overcome by its unifying and reconciling power those forces that
disintegrate relationships and societies."
Addressing the
spouses, he said: "Marriage is not an ideal, but the canon of true love
between man and woman: total, faithful, fruitful love."
This
contradicts/corrects Pope Francis's erroneous document 'Amoris
Laetitia', in which he dismissed the indissolubility of marriage in
Chapter 8 as an 'ideal' that is sometimes unattainable.
