RE: “We do not vote on what is or is not sinful, nor does the fad of the day or secular popularity drive what is and is not permitted in our Faith.”
Then why did the nuns try to scare the cr*p outta me saying I would go to hell if I ate meat on Friday? Now it’s OK to eat meat on Friday.
Just sayin.
Also a great resource is the classic Radio Replies. It's timeless and something that should be in the library of every serious defender of the Catholic faith.
The 3 volume set of Radio Replies is available for under a dollar on the Kindle and Nook. Even though RR is free at various sites on the Net, having all the notation, bookmarking, etc. features associated with ebooks is really worth the tiny cost.
Here's the link for the Kindle version on Amazon: Radio Replies - Volumes 1-3
And for the Nook version at Barnes & Noble: Radio Replies Vol. 1-3 for Nook
It's also available for free at several locations on the Net. My fave is www.radioreplies.info.
The layout of the site is professional and, better, it includes extra volumes of the classic series.
Ping for later
How come when I say that I am no longer a Roman Catholic I get people telling me that if I was baptized a Catholic (as an infant), I will always be a Catholic? I am a born again Christian and I serve and worship the Lord Jesus Christ just not in a Catholic church. I wonder if the next time I get the same insistence that, "you were born a Catholic, you will die a Catholic", I can point them to a place in the Catechism that says it ain't so?
