Haug evaluates Catholic doctrine from the perspective of history, the church fathers, and biblical teaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten in an accessible and engaging style, this book will reveal: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe role of tradition in the early church, the church fathers, and Catholic doctrine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe origin of the Papacy and whether it is a unique office\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow and where the Bible was compiled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe history and doctrine of Catholic Sacraments and the Mass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe differences between Protestant and Catholic salvation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow Catholics came to venerate Mary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe origin of purgatory, penance, confession, and indulgences\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeaving Catholicism provides a charitable but uncompromising view of the differences and similarities between Catholics and Protestants.
