About the book
The Catholic Church has always been well-supplied with critics, but very often their criticisms are rooted in fundamental misunderstanding, or in a failure to grasp just what the Church teaches and why. It is these critics upon whom Fr Aidan Nichols OP turns his attention in this book: those who are inspired by modernist rationalism to reject the supernatural; those who regard the New Age as an acceptable surrogate for the Christian doctrine of salvation; academic theologians who reject the historical and biblical basis for Christianity. Also coming under scrutiny are feminists who see the Church as an expression of a patriarchal society; Protestants who play down Christ's nature as a priest; progressive Catholics who hesitate about proclaiming the Gospel of Life; and those who regard the Church's sexual ethics as 'unrealistic'... Insightful and forthright, Fr Nichols delivers a comprehensive set of apologias to define the Catholic faith from its most vocal critics -- both inside and outside the Church." -- back cover
