Customer Reviews

This is the one book you should have on your bookshelf to help you defend your Catholic faith.

I am a convert to Catholicism from a protestant religion, thanks to a History 101 class at a local university. However, it was not until I obtained this book that I fully understood and was able to defend the teachings of the Catholic church. This book is easy to read and understand - it is basically written on a "Reader's Digest" level. It thoroughly and concisely explains the logic and reasoning of church teaching and backs it up with historical reference. If you want to be able to defend the Catholic faith against all the standard attacks propagated by other religions and cults - then this is the one book you should have on your bookshelf. You will be able to hold your own in religious discussions with friends as well as those who are trying to convert you to their beliefs. I was brought up on The Bible and this book will give you a better understanding of the origins and organization of collected scripture. I highly recommend it to: those seeking enlightenment, those who study other religions, Catechism teachers, parents, and clergy.

A great book

This is a fantastic book on the catholic faith. As a former mormon investigating the Roman church, I've discovered that much of what I knew of the RCC came from Mormon and Protestant sources that resorted to libel and distortion to discredit the church. I'd recommend this text to anyone looking to discover what catholicism really teaches. Any Christian looking at history must investigate the Roman Catholic Church if they are to die with a clear conscience.

correction to john garcia

first of all that exert that john garcia gave is what the catholism states. This book is written by a john obrien who was a catholic.He is showing the incorrectness of catholic ways.In this book it clears up the misunderstandings about sundayworship and how catholics somehow deem themselves worthy to change gods holy day of worship. If you like millions of others want the truth I urge you to buy this book and read for yourselves the truth instead of just believing everything your told. This is an excellent book but if you want more information then read the bible

Outstanding Reference
