Beyond the Verse: What Protestants and Catholics Overlook About the Bible’s Origins
You’ll never look at a Bible’s table of contents the same way again: Protestants and Catholics alike accept things about the Bible that aren’t written in scripture. For Catholics, that’s no scandal—tradition and Church authority are part of the story. If you’re ever hit with a “show-me-a-verse” challenge, remember: sometimes the answer isn’t in a verse at all.

Hanukkah: It’s a Catholic Thing!?
A few words up front: This is in no way an attempt to hijack a religious holiday from our spiritual elder brothers and sisters; far from it. But the simple fact is: It’s in the Bible. More to the point, it’s in the part of the Bible that Catholics accept as canonical (i.e.: infallibly part […]

(Note: this is more than just legislatures, judges, […]
Young Earth Creationism vs. Old Earth Evolution: The Catholic Position.
God is Love. He perfect, omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing), and omnibenevolent (all good). Being Love in his very essence, he gives freely of himself to another, for the sake of the other, expecting nothing in return.
