Sažetak
The author discusses the phrase “openness to life” under the aspect of challenge for demography, politics, theology, faith and morality, in order to develop appropriate criteria and methodologies which will help the Church officials to promote the “openness to life” in Croatia into a more considered subject. The key issue is the work on the acceptance of “openness to life” among the basic dimensions of common good in Croatia. In this sense it is necessary to adjust the theological judgment and pastoral activity. The encyclical letter “Caritas in veritate” shows us how the principle of not interfering in the politics, must not become an obstacle to the engagement of the Church in the promotion of the openness to life. In the field
of the ethical and theological thought there are changes to be considered in the classical sexual ethics, in order to make the openness to life achievable for a greater number of married couples.
