Catholic FAQs
-
When was the Catholic Church founded?
Jesus Christ started the Catholic Church almost 2000 years ago.
-
Do Catholics worship Mary and Saints?
No. We look to them as role models and ask for their prayers.
-
Do Catholics read the Bible?
Yes! Our Faith is based on Scripture and tradition, not just the Bible alone.
-
Are Catholics Anti-Science?
No, Catholicism teaches that reason (science) and faith are complimentary, meaning they work together.
In Fact, it was Catholic clergy that first proposed the Big Bang Theory!
-
Is the Pope infallible? (never wrong)
The Catechism of the Catholic Church says, "Christ endowed the Church's shepherds with the charism of infallibility in matters of faith and morals. The exercise of this charism takes several forms: The Roman Pontiff, head of the college of bishops, enjoys this infallibility in virtue of his office, when, as supreme pastor and teacher of all the faithful -- who confirms his brethren in the faith -- he proclaims by a definitive act a doctrine pertaining to faith or morals."
