Crash Course Catholicism

www.caitlinwest.com "The fact that people's religion tends to align with the culture and country that they grew up in shows that religion is just a cultural construct" "There are so many hypocritical people who have used religion to abuse others, to start wars, or to seek power. These people undermine the validity of religion." "We no longer need God; science explains everything we need to know." "If God exists, then why is there so much suffering and evil in the world?" In this episode, we wrap up our discussion of objections to belief in God. ⁠Donate via PayPal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Support us on Patreon!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Contact the podcast: crashcoursecatholicism@gmail.com.

About Podcast

Catholicism can seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be.

Crash Course Catholicism breaks down the beliefs, traditions, and teachings of the Catholic Church in a way that's thoughtful, accessible, and engaging. The first 50 episodes of this podcast are a summary of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, while later episodes include deep dives into big questions about God, Scripture, Church history, the saints, morality, and the spiritual life. Our aim is to help you build a stronger understanding of the faith without requiring a theology degree.
