Catechism of the Catholic Church Index

I use the online version of the Catechism of the Catholic Church at the Vatican web site all the time, so I decided to make an upgraded version of their index page (here). The improvements on this version include:

1. The links now open pages in new tabs.
2. I’ve added links to the Latin version, to make it easier to check the original.
3. I’ve added the passage numbers in parentheses after each link, to make it easier to look up passages by their number.

Feel free to bookmark this page. A short link for it is JimmyAkin.com/catechism

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."
