About this listen

My title explains itself. But it's misleading. There are more than 40 reasons.

In fact, there are at least 10 to the 82nd power, which, I am told, is the number of atoms in the universe. And that's just in ordinary matter, which makes up only four-point-nine percent of the universe, the rest being dark matter and dark energy.

Each of my reasons is an independent point, so I have not organized this book by a succession of chapters or headings. After all, most people only remember a few big ideas or separate points after reading or listening to a book. I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that was a good continuous-process-of-logically-ordered-argumentation" but I've often heard people say, "Oh, that was a good point."

Which takes me back to my main point: "Why are you a Catholic?" is a good question.

A good question deserves a good answer. Here are 40 of mine.

The book lists only 40 reasons for being a Catholic - they are subjective but very interesting and there are many references to the Bible itself. Short but worth listening- ideally with Bible in hand so you can check it yourself.
