These web resources are an effort to enable people of all ages, who can tolerate a moderate perspective in the Catholic spectrum, to investigate our faith.

We try to avoid the extremes, both from the left and from the right. But you will probably find some URL collections, with a link or two on them that you won’t like. Such is life!

Remember, too, that every link will not necessarily connect you to a site which can claim to be one hundred percent pure ROMAN CATHOLIC. But that’s the scholarship dilemma: An authentic scholar needs to go beyond absolutes; but how far to go!? YOU will need to make the choices which will define your resolution of the scholarship dilemma. Let your conscience and the spirit of the Lord be your guides.
