A Summarized Review Of Catholicism And Fundamentalism

By Olivia Cross


Kart Keating has condensed a formidable response to questions asked by Bible Christians and Protestants regarding the Catholic faith to produce the 360 pages book. Catholicism and Fundamentalism has led many lukewarm Catholics to return to their faith and Non-Catholics to convert. This book has had tremendous impact since it was releases in 1988 by the Ignatius Press.

The book answers fundamental questions including where Protestants get their information about Catholics and their faith. It reveals how the anti-catholic movement has grown in the United States and its manifestation. Individuals who love engaging in arguments have been given vital tips on how to maintain their peace during such verbal contests.

Keating has given prominence to the anti-catholic crusaders and gone ahead to reveal their activities, financiers, leaders, location and manifestation. From this book, the group is lead by leaders of protestant and evangelical churches with the support of powerful politicians. As a reader you will get clarity on what being infallible means.

Keating Kart pays attention to bible Christians and their attack of Catholic rites, dogmas, faith and systems, among others. The author is skeptical about their assertion that all activities within any Christian church must emanate from the bible directly and not by implication. The answers provided will convince atheists, Non-Christians, Protestant and lukewarm Catholics alike.

The history of the Roman Catholic Church has found its way into this book. The chapters provide answers to accusation that the church is very conservative and resistant to change. Kart adopts an informative tone on a section where one would expect a lot of justification and defense.

The writer has delved into the assertion that Catholicism is not real Christianity. This is an accusation that is thrown to Catholics by fellow Christians who subscribe to the thought that there must be strict adherence to biblical direction. The main areas of attack as described by Kart include the dogma surrounding Mary and her privileged position within the church teachings.

Papacy and the trend over the years continue to elicit controversy. What Kart Keating has done is to explain the circumstances that surrounded each controversial papacy. This includes an instance when the Vatican based church was said to have more than one pope. Beyond the explanation, details about how the situation was resolved are given. This chapter is very enlightening to anyone who reads it with an open mind.

Keating Kart has addressed issues raised by Non-Christians on the bible and not necessarily on Catholicism. Among these issues is the bible and whether it was inspired by God. The writer has researched thoroughly on the history of different writers and how these books came into being. The apocalypse books found in catholic bibles are also explained.

At the end of this book, Keating challenges Roman Catholics to have a library and stock several fundamental books. They include the bible, catechism books and others on the history of Catholicism. This is an amazing compilation of answers and insights that are of great benefit to Catholics and other people interested in understanding the faith.
