Sidebar Content Explanation and Disclaimer

One thing that sets my blog apart from other blogs devoted to Catholic apologetics is my sidebar. I am aware of no other blog that has a more comprehensive collection of links then mine does. These links are also categorized into sections, that open and close with a click of each respective "button", or section title (go ahead, try it!). I've never seen that anywhere else either.

Sprinkled throughout the sidebar are a handful of links from non-Catholic sources. This should not be seen as an endorsement of any information that these sources may happen to contain that is contrary to the teaching of the Catholic Church. I am ardently faithful to the Magisterium and to the Successor of St. Peter (see my profession of faith). These links have been added to the sidebar because, despite not having a singularly Catholic identity, they are still very helpful in apologetics.

Most of these links are to reference works that have no religious affiliation whatsoever. I have found it to be quite effective whenever I can use an objective, scholarly source to defend Catholicism. This helps to undercut the argument that "only a Catholic would believe that!" Of course, I have also tried to include as many awesome Catholic resources as I possibly can.

You should always use your discretion when utilizing these resources. "Test everything, hold fast to what is good" (1 Thes 5:21).

The following links are to non-Catholic sources. They are listed in the order in which they appear:
