The article informs on integralism which is the principle that the Catholic faith should be the basis of public law and public policy within civil society. It mentions adherence to the Church's teaching on the social order and, in particular, to the restatement of that teaching by Pope Leo XIII in the late 19th century; recognition that religion is not merely a private matter, and so discourse about God, good and evil; and opposition to liberalism in all its forms.

The article focuses on the neglected document of Pope Paul VI. Topics discussed include Pope Paul VI's encyclical letter Humanae Vitae issued on July 25, 2014 which states that the use of contraception violates the natural law, Catholics and Protestants in U.S. who have a moralistic cast of mind, and Paul's plan to offer a profession of faith in order to speak a firm testimony to the divine truth.
