The Catholic C.S.Lewis. (7/7 people found this helpful)
Recommended reading for anyone thinking of converting to the Catholic Faith, those who wish to know what Catholics really believe or believers who just want to strengthen their own faith. This is a solid work of Christian Apologetics that deftly builds from the sphere of 'Natural Theology'(reason) to that of revealed truth (revelation).
As you progress through the text you will learn, amongst other things, about Fideism, Presuppositionalism, the 'Five ways of Thomas Aquinas', Feuebach's critique, 'The Problem of Evil' and Church teaching on; signs and miracles, how the Bible relates to Catholicism, why Catholics don't pray to Saints or worship the Blessed Virgin Mary, Papal Infallibility (what it is and ,more importantly, what it is not) and how the Mother Church relates to 'the Kingdom of God'.
This is the first of Scott Hahns books I have read and it wont be the last! An intelligent articulate and deeply researched piece of work, excellent.
