No, "Catholic" books, "Catholic" saints. There are tons of books and hundreds of saints. Theologians spend their lives on these questions. <snip> > It is a whole structure of beliefs.

The honest priests tell you that you are free to believe anything reasonable. If your religious background was that nit-picky absolute that you had to believe every tiny detail regardless of how fantastic then I don't blame you for being hostile to it. Of course, I was studying theology at a Jesuit college - completed a minor in theology in fact, and I guess they are not all that doctrinaire. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
