5.0 out of 5 stars History of Today's Catholic Church, Nov 2 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Inquisition (Paperback)
I started reading this book thinking it would be a simple history of the Inquisition. It turned out to be much more. If you want to understand the modern Catholic Church, this book is for you. It contains an incredible amount of information on how the Church became what it is today. The authors are brilliant at explaining the history in a very simple yet complete way. They take the reader through the complexity of the politics behind the religion. They seperate the State from the Church. It will surprise you. I thought I would lose a bit more of whatever respect I had left for the Church after reading this book. Maybe I did. But I also gained a profound understanding of HOW it got to be what it is today. Fan or foe, you should inform yourself about this powerful institution that is the Catholic Church.
