Mark Alder has done a marvelous service to Catholics and serious Christians with his unique website, www.christendom-awake.org.  It provides a veritable library of excellent resources in apologetics, theology, philosophy and literary criticism.  Perusing it is a delight and I say this not primarily because he has graciously provided me a webpage.  Indeed I am honored to find myself in such distinguished company.  I hope that all of us represented on this site will continue to keep the faith ablaze during this era in which “ignorant armies clash by night.”
Msgr. Arthur B. Calkins
I recommend to you the following two books that I have now made available: Turmoil and Truth and the sequel, The Catholic Church and the Counter-Faith. These books give a very clear and accessible account of the various “streams of thought” operating both within and without the Catholic Church. I find it sad that both of these books are now out of print. Mark Alder
