New book - No Grounds for Divorce: Why Protestants (and Everyone Else) Should Return to the Unity of the Catholic Church

In this book, I lay out a basic case for the Catholic Church, directed especially towards Protestants.  The Catholic Church is the organic descendent of the Church founded by Christ.  The Protestants had to break from her unity, authority, and continuity in order to establish and maintain their separate existence.  They have the burden of proof to show that this break was justified.  Many arguments have been put forward over the centuries to provide justification for this break.  I look at a good many of them, and conclude that they fail to provide adequate justification.  The conclusion?  The Protestant rupture with the Catholic Church should never have happened, and Protestants today should return to her unity.

Topics dealt with in the book include Scripture, Tradition, and authority; justification; salvation by grace; merit; venial and mortal sins; predestination, grace, and free will; the sacraments; the Eucharist; priests and priesthood; confession; penance; purgatory; indulgences; Mary; the intercession of the saints and honor shown to the saints; doctrinal development; images; bad popes and bad Catholics, the Rosary; the Galileo affair; and the salvation of non-Catholics.
