Born Fundamentalist, Born Again Catholic
David B. Currie - 1996
Currie's whole upbringing was immersed in the life of fundamentalist Protestantism - theology professors, seminary presidents and founders of evangelical mission agencies were frequent guests at his family dinner table. Currie received a degree from Trinity International University and studied in the Masters of Divinity program. This book was written as an explanation to his fundamentalist and evangelical friends and family about why he became a Roman Catholic. Currie presents a very lucid, systematic and intelligible account of the reasons for his conversion to the ancient Church that Christ founded. He gives a detailed discussion of the important theological and doctrinal beliefs Catholic and evangelicals hold in common, as well as the key doctrines that separate us, particularly the Eucharist, the Pope, and Mary.

Chris Stefanick - 2011
He recognized this in his homily on April 18, 2005, "We are building a dictatorship of relativism that does not recognize anything as definitive and whose ultimate goal consists solely of one's own ego and desires."Through a down-to-earth, easily accessible Question-and-Answer format, Stefanick's book shows:Why relativism inherently contradicts its own claims.What makes it one of the worst ideas in the history of ideas.How relativism has a direct influence on the morals and virtues of a nation.Why relativism doesn't even work "in real life."How relativism is counterproductive to the true practice of toleranceWhy religion which makes claims to absolute truth is finally more tolerant than relativism.What Christianity has almost singlehandedly done to foster true tolerance in the world.How all laws legislate moralityWhat the true meaning of "open-minded" means it's not what you think
