The consistent ethic of life is an integral Catholic social teaching that life is dignified and valuable from conception to natural death. It was articulated by the late Cardinal Joseph Bernardin, archbishop of Chicago from 1982 until his death in 1996 from pancreatic cancer. Fr. Mark Francis, CSV had many interactions with Cardinal Bernardin during his time as a professor, as Viatorian Superior General, and also with peers and proteges of the cardinal while Fr. Francis was president of Catholic Theological Union, where the Bernardin Center is based. In this conversation, we tap into this connection to unpack the consistent ethic of life.
