One story I read stated that at a non-Catholic seminary the students were given a stack of books by Catholic authors as the course texts. When questioned why they were using Catholic authors, the student was nformed that there were no similar texts by non-Catholics.

There is great freedom in the safety of the Catholic Church’s doctrines and even more artistic freedom safety in her spirituality.

God bless…
