Getting ready for my Lenten journey I wanted to know what a mentor of mine thought about my disgust for the so called “Christians” on campus. In essence he said that you need to know the teaching down pat and do not reason with them (Thus far I have failed the latter). So I thought of this idea. I am not doing this so I can drive though the holes in their “proof that God exist,”* with an aircraft carrier, I can already do it now. I wanted to do this so I can learn from my own faith and figure out that everything is too beautiful to live. Since my people have written billions of words on everything I ever wanted to know about being a Roman Catholic. I have a couple stories typed up about the struggle I had with my other brothers and sisters in what they would call, “our faith in Jesus”, but I will save them for a later date.
The thing that cemented this idea was listening to a podcast that my former theology teacher did for a radio show. The link is HERE.
Clapp has done four other podcasts, each one is very fascinating. Also, it is the perfect thing during the Catholic bashing I get on a daily basis now.
Tomorrow I will actually have my first post, diving head first into the Catechism.
