Wills begins with a reflection on his early experience of faith as a child, and later as a Jesuit seminarian, revealing the importance of Catholicism in his own life. He goes on to challenge, in clear and forceful terms, the dogmatic claim that criticism or reform of the papacy is an assault on the faith itself. Posing urgent questions for Catholic and non-Catholic readers alike, Why I Am a Catholic argues for the continuing relevance of a papacy understood as a symbol of unity,not of infallibility. Wills has already stirred up controversy about the profound failures of a corrupt church hierarchy. Now, at a time when the church faces one of its most difficult crises, he is sure to spark an equally heated conversation about its future.
