Iacobus Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 When I have studied history I haven't paid extra attention to the question of if the Church is true or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yiannii Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I have looked into Christian history because I think that learning where we come from is very important - only to have affirmed that the Church was clearly defined even in 100 AD.

Cam42 Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Considering that this is more or less the same poll stated twice, I will paste my answer from the other thread...as not to be inconsistent...... [quote]We come to know God (and ultimately His Church) through Faith and Reason. We are compelled as Christians to know and defend the Church. That is Apologetics. As Catholics, we need to be able to, to a greater or lesser degree, prove the authenticity of the Church. Much of your poll is discussed by this current Holy Father in his various encyclicals, but no more important is Fides et Ratio.[/quote] Cam42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archaeology cat Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I can't really answer any of the choices. If you study history with a predetermined outcome in mind, you will (subconsciously, if not deliberately) make the data fit your predetermined outcome. Instead, you should look at the material and then determine what it can tell you. So I guess I would answer that I study history in order to see what happened, whatever that may be.

jeffpugh Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 I do it "for fun" as well. I'm interesting in seeing what was goin on with the Church way back then. It only re-affirms my belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
