VATICAN CITY (NC) — With a firm "yes" to the indissolubility of marriage and to present church teaching on artificial birth control, Pope John Paul II closed the 1980 world Synod of Bishops last Saturday October 25. Speaking in Latin to synod participants in the Sistine Chapel, the Pope said that the only divorced and remarried Catholics who may receive the eucharist were those who refrained from sexual relations with their second spouse. He had strong praise for the synod's affirmation of "the validity and clear truth of the prophetic message — filled with profound meaning and pertaining to today's conditions — contained in the encyclical 'Humanae Vitae (of Human Life).'" Church teachings on contraception and remarriage after divorce had been major topics of discussion during the synod, which opened on September 26 on "the role of the Christian family in the world of today."
