The Catholic Church Has the Answer

No matter who's asking, the Catholic Church has the answer!

The Catholic Church is the world's largest religious body. Her members inhabit the width and breadth of the earth, comprising about one-seventh of the total human population. She is far and away the most popular religious concept the world has ever known. Paradoxically, however, the Catholic Church is also the world's most controversial religious concept. Catholic belief is different—too different to be true, say Protestants and Christian cultists.

Catholic belief is too ethereal to be logical, and too strict to be enjoyable, say the humanists and agnostics. Hence, to millions of people, Catholicism is not only a colossal success, but also a colossal enigma. Of course, there has to be an explanation for these contradictory opinions, and there is an explanation: Protestants and others who have questions about Catholic belief too often make the mistake of going to the wrong place for the answers. The result is incomplete and distorted information. With such information, one cannot help but see the Catholic faith as a colossal enigma.

The right place to go for information about Catholic belief, in fact the only place to go for complete and authoritative information, is the Catholic Church herself. Because the Catholic Church has the answer—and not only to questions about herself, but also about all your biggest questions in life: Why am I here? Why am I alive? Why should I be? Whom do I trust? How can I be happy? How can I live forever? What do I really want? What do I really need? Who am I? Where am I going?
