Catholic FAQs
When was the Catholic Church founded?
Jesus Christ founded the Catholic Church in 33 A.D.
Do Catholics worship Mary and Saints?
No. We look to them as role models and ask for their intercessions.
Do Catholics read the Bible?
Yes! Our Faith is based on Scripture and Tradition. When looking at the Mass you will find over 100 scriptural references.
Are Catholics Anti-Science?
No, Catholicism teaches that reason (science) and faith are complimentary, meaning they work together! In the early days of the scientific renaissance many Catholic clergy were scientists based upon their education. In fact, it was Catholic clergy that first proposed the Big Bang Theory!
Is the Pope infallible? (never wrong)
Yes and No. The pope is considered infallible only when he speaks in ex cathedra, meaning when he speaks on matters of faith from his chair at the Basilica of St. John Lateran.
Can I return to the Catholic Church?
The Catholic Church welcomes everyone who has stopped participating in the life of the church and there are many resources to help.
Please reach out to us at 788.0811 and we will be happy to walk alongside you.
