Why Be a Catholic?

Autor Mark Dooley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 iun 2011
The Catholic Church has never been so deeply immersed in crisis - crisis of authority, priestly scandal, celibacy, hierarchy - stretching right up to the Vatican itself.

Most people in authority are keeping quiet or squabbling among themselves.

Mark Dooley is a Professor of Philosophy who is also a serious commentator, journalist and broadcaster. He has written a book of hope for those who have none.

It is, he argues, only when the sacramental life of the local parishes is revitalised that renewal in the Church can be achieved.

Recenzii

[a] beautifully written book... In the times in which we live, to write as Dooley has done takes courage. As you read this book you may be edified, you may be enraged; one thing you won't be is bored.
[Mark Dooley is] well-qualified to get to the heart of the matters that trouble so many today: why bother with being a Catholic.
Why Be a Catholic? courageously confronts what must be done if Catholicism is to survive as a religion of redemption.
This is a timely book that seeks to revitalise a faith that it all too apt to flag in this time of crisis. Dooley faces up to the clerical sex-abuse scandals, but shows us a church that still keeps the flame of faith alive... [his] heartfelt plea deserves to be heard.
