Now that's a cool name

I'm not a Catholic, but I've got to concede that the Papal document on human sexuality and reproduction, Evangelium Vitae, has got to have one of the coolest names around.  Translated roughly from its roots, "the good news of life."  Or "the gospel of life."  Or "Evangelism by life."  All true, and too cool.  Well done, Roma!

the Church always speaks in latin as its official language.
(this title is officially translated into english as The Gospel Of Life)

get yerself a copy of this, or i can send you mine. its good stuff, and its all stuff that you would find great appreciation in.

JPII basically took paul vi's Humanae Vitae (Of Human Life) and adapted it to the more modern era realities, and clarified a few areas some were not following properly.

Humanae Vitae was used by the prolife movement of christian scholars from all demoninations for apologetics purposes.
