Summary: Clear Review of Catholic Doctrine
Comment: John Keating's Catholicism and Fundamentalism is a masterpiece of apologetics. This book was written in 1988, but the arguments raised and refuted are just as pertinent today. Whether you agree with his logic or disagree, you will find here a lucid explanation of Catholic teachings. Highly recommended to anyone seeking to honestly understand the Catholic view.
Rating: 4
Summary: Best ecumenism is with the serious not the silly
Comment: OK, I'm all for personal judgement but when non-Catholic reviewers state we should read with "unbiased eyes" they, like postmodernists, fail to criticise thier own preconceptions to the same degree they do the Catholics.
Effectively, purely unbiased reading of the scripture in the revolutionary power rejecting spirit of Gramsci, rejects the voice of previous FAITHFUL HOLY SPIRT GUIDED generations on interpretation.
The reviewer below even rejects Martin Luther!! "glaring exceptions of Luther's consubstantiation and continuing infant baptism". What basis of authority can one work from?
Who is this person? Truely they are an oracle, a direct line to God. No Pope has ever acted so unilaterally!
The hierarchy of interpreting authority is now:
God
1st towering over all humanity: The reviewer posting below
2nd Zwingli
3rd Martin Luther and John Calvin
4th "Left Behind" authors
5th Rick Warren or Bill Hybels?
53rd ... Augustine?
86th an agreeable Pope?
Even thought the reveiwer would reject it, s/he has set themselves up as a personal SuperPope with infalliable power to judge the opinions of ALL Christendom whether they are Luther, Calvin, or the Church Fathers, who, in thier cases, even if they did know the Apostles personally, are judged to be in error if they disagree with the reviewer!!! (and I assure you they do disagree. The Fathers are all online for free at http://www.ccel.org/fathers2/ )
My favourite quote from Luther:
"Those [new Protestant sects] are heretics and apostates who follow their own ideas rather than the common tradition of Christendom, who out of pure wantonness, invent new ways and methods."

Summary: a re-energized cradle Catholic
Comment: As a life long Catholic I was certainly guilty of the lazy, cafeteria style Catholicism that plagues most US Catholics. But thankfully that has changed. This book has been a wonderful addition to my other reading and searching for answers. I always knew Catholicism was the church God had intended for us, Jesus started for us, but I couldn't explain why. Now I can. This book is eye opening to the way so many bible Christians think about us and certainly surprised me. I only hope that my being better informed will help lead others to God and His church.
