Teaching the world about salvation.

Catholic AnswerThe contributions of the Catholic Church are beyond measure. The Catholic Church is singlehandedly responsible for Western Civilization, modern science, most of the history that we know of, due to the monks' constant copying of all manuscripts. The Catholic Church has given the world The Bible, genetics, astronomy, modern farming techniques, the university system, public education, etc. Start with the book below, How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization. It is not an exaggeration to say that our modern western world would not be here, were it not for the Catholic Church.
