Catholic Quotes

Like many other scientists who hold the Catholic faith, I see the Creator's plan and purpose fulfilled in our universe.

I see a science that tells us there is indeed a design to life.

The Catholic novelist in the South will see many distorted images of Christ, but he will certainly feel that a distorted image of Christ is better than no image at all. I think he will feel a good deal more kinship with backwoods prophets and shouting fundamentalists than he will with those politer elements for whom the supernatural is an embarrassment and for whom religion has become a department of sociology or culture or personality development.
