Very interesting.

My faith goes back, in tradition, to St Patrick, but I had to re-learn it as an adult, as most need to do, like learning English grammar rules in school.

I recently heard, I think form George Weigel, maybe Fr. Mitch Pacwa, something I guess I knew. Anyway, the Catholic Church is based on reason as well as faith.

So, the lifestyle and rules set out by the Church are good for anyone- Or: anyone’s life is enhanced in living out the rules of living that the Church professes.

Those, anyway, are two people I recommend reading, though for Mr. Weigel, get the dictionary out. His thinking is way above average but very readable because of his logic.

Thank you for the suggestions. I know very little of the history of the Church other than New Testament and first century teachings. Because the Protestant Faith doesn’t concern itself with church history a lot of us are ignorant of it. I personally think our history as Christians is important. I also feel that somehow us protestants have lost the art of worship. This is something that my Catholic brothers just do better. Of course this is my opinion and I am not in anyway speaking for anyone.
