What is the religious breakdown of your family?

For example, my parents met at 15 years old in a French Catholic School. My mother is fairly traditional but my father is more of a Christian Universalist, who also believes in women's ordination and priests being allowed to marry, but likes Catholicism for the family tradition. They had their children attend church for eighteen years and be confirmed. My two adult sisters are more non-denominational, open-minded Christians, who pray often but don't go to church during college. I'm an atheist. I'm also the only one in my family with an extensive background in theology, who's read the Bible a few times over and studied other sacred texts and world mythology.

My dad is technically a Protestant, I think Followers of Christ, though since it's uncommon, I have trouble remembering the name. His parents were originally Presbyterian when they came form Scotland but when their oldest was the right age for Sunday school, they sent him to the church around the corner who's minister was one of those rare church leaders who visited them and encouraged them to attend. They had stopped going to church during the Depression because my grandmother had nothing to wear that was good enough for church.

My mom was Catholic. They met at a Notre Dame football game in Notre Dame. My two brothers, and I, our spouses and the 3 children in two marriages our Catholics.

I, too, believe women should be able to be ordained and priests should be allow to marry. My oldest younger brother is extremely conservative and probably would go for the Latin mass if he could. The other goes because of his two daughter who are in Catholic school, but he doesn't really care much about it.

The Catholic Church and the Bible $11.95 Are Catholics biblical illiterates? So goes the frequent question, proving that myths die hard. But Catholics ought to be able to answer the charge made by many non-Catholics in this regard. This book is a response to Fundamentalist critics and an explanation of the Catholic biblical tradition. The Catholic Church and the Bible is a significant scriptural study guide, published from a Catholic perspective and particularly keyed to the new Catechism of the Catholic Church. The well-planned, straight-forward text is clearly outlined to make information easy to find and understand. Main topics include: - The Catholic understanding of the Bible - God's Word and its purpose in the Church - A biblical theology of the Mass, the place of the Bible in the Sacred Liturgy - A question-and-answer section that deals with pertinent and popular inquiries made by Catholics and non-Catholics alike This work should be heartily welcomed by both clergy and laity, for Father Stravinskas sheds new light on Catholic Bible study by writing with candor, clarity and scriptural backing. This is ideal for high schools and RCIA programs. "An excellent tool for the Catholic apologist. The reader has everything in one place: pithy answers plus biblical and magisterial citations. Fr. Stravinskas is the best priest-apologist in the country." "Karl Keating, Author, Catholicism and Fundamentalism Fr. Peter M.J. Stravinskas is the well-known editor of the The Catholic Answer magazine, a contributing editor to National Catholic Register , and has written over 500 articles for numerous Catholic publications.
