Catholic Q & A

Catholic Questions and Answers – One of the best ways to learn is to ask questions. Interestingly, the most significant summary of our Catholic faith was written by St. Thomas Aquinas (called the Summa Theologica – Summary of Theology) and is set up in a question and answer format. It’s hard to believe an answer if you don’t understand the question it is addressing.

The Q&A below is no Summa Theologica, but hopefully some of these reflections will answer questions that are important to you.
