UK: Catholics ignore veto on the Pill

The Times Online reports:

The Tablet, a weekly Catholic magazine, surveyed 1,500 Catholics from parishes across England and Wales and found that nearly half had never heard of Humanae Vitae, the 1968 encyclical that set out the teaching.

Most did know, however, that the Church’s official stance on contraception was that it should never be used. More than half believed that this teaching should be revised.
