Seven Lies About Catholic History

In Seven Lies about Catholic History, Diane Moczar (author of Islam at the Gates) tackles the most infamous and prevalent historical myths about the Church—popular legends that you encounter everywhere from textbooks to T.V.—and reveals the real truth about them. She explains how they got started and why they're still around, and best of all, she gives you the facts and the arguments you need to set the record straight about:

• The Inquisition: how it was not a bloodthirsty institution but a merciful (and necessary) one;
• Galileo's trial: why moderns invented a myth around it to make science appear incompatible with the Catholic faith (it's not);
• The Reformation: why the 16th-century Church was not totally corrupt (as even some Catholics wrongly believe), as well as how the reformers made things worse for everybody;
• And other lies that the world uses to attack and discredit the Faith
