 Andrew Casad's Website: Diatribe on Catholic Answers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
As I mentioned in my introduction, I am glad that Catholic Answers is successful in reaching so many people and perhaps it indicates a positive trend towards people appropriating their Catholicism as a more important aspect of their identity, something which you would recognize as taking their Catholicism seriously.
Catholic Answers has done a disservice by only emphasizing five issues, albeit important ones, to the detriment of other issues at least as important as those you purport to represent the fullness of a Catholic’s "non negotiable" voting conscience.
Given the power that Catholic Answers has to reach a large number of people, it is shame that they choose to propagate such narrow and ill-informed understandings of Islam.

 Catholic Apologetics International - Robert Sungenis
The sad fact is, at least in the brevity with which Catholic Answers expressed it, the above directive is adequate neither in substance nor breadth to be of reliable use to the average Catholic.
But in choosing five non-negotiables, Catholic Answers is implicitly telling us that some of the issues we formerly considered non-negotiable are now negotiable (e.g., homosexuality lifestyle, homosexual adoptions, contraception, divorce and remarriage, pre-marital sex, cohabitation, artificial insemination, surrogate motherhood, eugenics, pornography, etc).
The fact that Catholic Answers was forced to limit their selection only to five shows just how far the Christian community has been backed into the proverbial corner by the permissive society in which we live.

 Catholic Answers vs. Catholic "Choice"
On Tuesday August 31, Catholic Answers ran a full-page ad in USA Today in several major markets advising Catholics how to vote, in light of Church teaching, on five key, non-negotiable issues.
Akin: The purpose is to educate Catholics on Church teaching regarding their moral obligations when involved in the political process, an educational goal that has been neglected for far too long, leaving Catholics vulnerable to manipulation regarding what their faith requires.
Today Catholic moral teaching has come under attack, both by individuals outside the Church and even by some within it, who want to confuse and mislead Catholics about what their faith requires.

 The Catholic Answers Man   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
For several years, “Catholic Answers” was simply a part-time endeavor, something Keating worked on in his spare time.
Today, Catholic Answers promotes and defends the Catholic faith through myriad books and tracts; two magazines, called Be and This Rock; a variety of audio and video materials; seminars by staff apologists; and Catholic Answers Live, a Catholic radio program carried on more than fifty AM and FM stations nationally.
“If we are unable to answer a question, we look it up and get back to people.” That can be a time-intensive process, but in the end, it helps the apologists as well as the inquirers to grow in their understanding of the Faith.
