The purpose of this portion of our web site is assist non-Christians who are seeking to better understand the Christian faith and more specifically, Catholic Christianity.  Although the main audience for these pages are:

• Atheists and Agnostics
• our Jewish brethren/(Judaism)
• Muslims/(Islam)

• Hindu's/(Hinduism)
  
  as well as those who practice:
  
  
• Confucianism
• Baha'i Faith
• Jainism
• Shinto
• Sikhism and
• Taoism

There can be many questions about Christianity and the difference between Catholic Christianity and Far East religions. I have had Muslims and other non-Catholic Christians ask for material from overseas but because I am almost broke myself cannot afford to send anyone anything, the best I can do is refer non-Christians to the appropriate on-line resources.

Besides being a learning resource for non-Christians, the average Catholic and non-Catholic Christian, who belongs to a mainstream denomination, will find the content of these pages a refresher course on the basics, all Christians should know and accept as believers in Jesus Christ — the One and Only True God and True Man.
