Historically the Catholic Church has been against this practice. Wondering what modern restrictions are.

Italian Government doesn't equal Vatican City (its own State). Yes, they do. And for the record: Silvio Berlusconi (Prime Minister) believes FIRST in politics THEN religion
2 :
The Catholic church has over 600 hospitals in the US alone. Some of their Universities have Medical programs. What do you think?
3 :
This isn't the Middle Ages anymore. Most of Europe is pretty secular, the government has much more power than the Church. The Church can try to rule over people's personal decisions, but it can't tell Universities what to do (unless of course the University is affiliated with the Catholic Church).
