ARE CATHOLICS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING? (A BOOK REVIEW)*

The terrors of the Inquisition,
Says Coren, weren’t the Church’s fault;
But says extremes in its ambition
Lay squarely in the bankers’ vault. 
The Scientific Revolutions
Indeed had Catholic contributions;
And as for fighting in Crusades:
To take their homelands back from spades.
But most of all and most “compelling”
He says the Holocaust of Jews
Was fought against. That’s surely news!
What I don’t get is underselling
A problem (that leaves Catholics awed)
Is proving that there’s any God.
* This is my review of Michael Coren’s book Why Catholics Are Right.
