Will the Real Vatican II Please Stand Up?

The content of the documents of Vatican II may well rival the third secret of Fatima for speculation and inscrutability. The only way to uncover the genuine teachings of the Council is to highlight texts that show, beyond a shadow of a doubt, no traditional practice or doctrine is contradicted—on the contrary, tradition is reinforced in convincing ways. A tour through the real Second Vatican Council.

The Testimony of Rocky Halls

Today’s Catholic advocates of a young earth think that an old earth implies evolution and that a young earth implies no evolution—or at least that an old earth would allow time for evolution, while a young earth would not. They argue that evolution is false, so the earth must be young. Here is an indirect and personal refutation, not so much scientific as affective.

When Heaven Can Wait

A Catholic Answers staff apologist accepts an invitation to spend two hours as a spokesperson for the Catholic faith on a Protestant radio show. When it turns into three hours—then four, then five, late into the night—and the host seems wowed that Catholics have biblical answers to common objections, the author is reminded once again of her very reason for existence.
