Three Revolutions by Robert Crotty (Main Forum)

by James, Australia, Wednesday, April 04, 2012, 18:42 (416 days ago) @ Brian Coyne

After hearing Richard Fidler's interview with Robert Crotty, I thought it might be worthwhile getting his book. A quick download for $10 on the Kindle had it in my hands.

I've only read the first few chapters, but I'm finding it fascinating reading. His descriptions of his Catholic childhood is one which is familiar to most of us wrinklies, particularly those who entered seminaries or religious orders. His description of pre-Vatican II Catholicism is pretty accurate.

But of particular interest to me was the struggle backwards and forwards between various Popes, Biblical Commissions and scholars about the "right" way to interpret the Bible.
