No Catholic should pass beyond the age of 16 without being able to answer clearly, both to himself and to others, the challenges of those who do not believe in the existence of God, of Christ or the teachings of the Catholic Church. In this compact book, Fr John Laux gives both the student and the adult reader dozens of excellent, well reasoned answers to the classic objections against the Catholic Faith. He covers all the fundamental truths of the Faith. Providing both facts and sound logical reasoning for every question he considers. Every Catholic should have a firm grounding regarding the reasonableness of his beliefs, lest he fall victim to the superficial objections of of the world which have been refuted over and over again for years, even for centuries. From this book, the reader will derive the confidence that there are not only answers, but excellent, thought provoking, logical answers to any and all difficulties abut the Faith which may arise. Fr Laux's presentation is thus a powerful tool to help souls hold fast with firm confidence to their Faith which time and again has proved to be the bulwark of sanity in this world, as well as the inestimable Pearl of Great Price for which true believers will sacrifice anything to possess.

Good Primer,
By
This review is from: Catholic Apologetics : God, Christianity, and the Church (A Course in Religion) (Paperback)
Number 4 in a Short Course in Religion. Even though the book is 80 years old it is still a good place to turn for a brief and basic coverage of the topic. Good for an intermediate primer. I would personally recommend it for children a little younger than the target High School audience, maybe 6th-7th grade. Supplemental material is needed to expand what is covered in the book, but that is stated in the book itself along with suggestions for further reading. The book succeeds in it's intended goal, a brief coverage of the topic to serve as a basis for class.

Catholic sound,
This review is from: Catholic Apologetics : God, Christianity, and the Church (A Course in Religion) (Paperback)
Catholic Apologetics is academically dated (originally written in the 1920's), but nevertheless a usefull tool for any serious Catholic who loves his/her catholic faith and desires to know it better and to share and defend it.

Tremendous!,

This review is from: Catholic Apologetics : God, Christianity, and the Church (A Course in Religion) (Paperback)
This is the fourth, or capstone, book in Father John's series on the Catholic religion. Here, Father John presents a firm grounding regarding the ultimate reasonables of the Catholic Faith. In studying philosophia perennis, we see the influence of that discipline in Father's most excellent writing and exposition. All who truly desire to adhere to Saint Peter's admonition to have always a sound reason for our Faith would to do well by reading this wonderful little book.
