Synopsis

'Perplexed Catholics' are not only those who have stopped going to church; they are also found amongst those who attend Mass regularly. Perplexed Catholics for James Forsyth are people for whom the Church and its teachings have become problematic or irrelevant. According to Forsyth They are the inheritors of a religious tradition rich in spiritual and moral wisdom, and yet they are starving! The premise of Forsyth's lucid book is that one of the roots of the alienation that perplexed Catholics experience is a distorted understanding of the Catholic tradition. In Catholicism Revisited, Forsyth offers fresh, clear guidance and answers to important questions about God and religion, the meaning of faith, the moral life, and the meaning of salvation. Here is hope for those who might be thinking about returning to the Church, those thinking about giving up on it, and those for whom the search seems endless.
