Religion in the News

A nice colum by Brent Bozell III on the Sad Paradox of Religion News.

Author: Jimmy Akin

Jimmy was born in Texas, grew up nominally Protestant, but at age 20 experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant seminary professor, he started an intensive study of the Bible. But the more he immersed himself in Scripture the more he found to support the Catholic faith, and in 1992 he entered the Catholic Church. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in Surprised by Truth. Besides being an author, Jimmy is the Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a contributing editor to Catholic Answers Magazine, and a weekly guest on "Catholic Answers Live."

One thought on “Religion in the News”

  1. An interesting article. Consider how often the media labels JP II a “conservative” or even a “traditionalist.” I don’t think JP II has ever called himself a conservative and he is opposed to traditionalists. But this fact is over the head of people who write about religion.
