Professor Stanislaw Grygiel warns against theologians who raise mans weakness to the dignity of the principle of life.
Theologians who wish to soften the teaching of Blessed Paul VIs encyclical Humanae Vitae are contaminated by political interests and sociological digressions and are putting human weakness rather than Christ at the center of salvation, a longtime friend of Pope St. John Paul II has said.

Grygiel was speaking at the launch last month of Karol Wojtyła and Humanae Vitae a book by Polish theologian Don Paweł Gałuszka on the contributions of St. John Paul and Polish theologians to the encyclical of Paul VI (see Grygiels complete speech below).
