{"product_id":"catholicism-and-america-fr-matthew-lamb-9781932589634","title":"Catholicism and America: Challenges and Prospects","description":"This book goes behind the headlines on the Catholic Church in the United States to explore some of the principles and philosophical sources to which Popes, Bishops, Priests, Religious, and laity appeal when they challenge American culture and society on moral and social issues. Rarely do the media discuss the \"dictatorship of relativism\" criticized by Pope Benedict XVI, and the reasons he gives for why such relativism undermines the moral foundations of religious freedom, tolerance, and democracy. The distinguished authors in this book offer clear and compelling arguments for taking these concerns seriously. Religious liberty in the United States has enabled Catholic immigrants to build up vast numbers of schools, universities, seminaries, hospitals, clinics, orphanages, and parishes. The authors suggest the responsibility Catholics have to learn and live the resources of wisdom, morality, and holiness in the two millennial history of Catholicism in order to renew and strengthen both the Church and American culture today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fr Matthew Lamb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1932589635\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781932589634\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sapientia Press Ave Maria Univ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Fr Matthew Lamb","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49097104294143,"sku":"9781932589634","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/catholicism-and-america-fr-matthew-lamb-9781932589634","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
