Bearing false witness
Debunking Centuries of Anti-Catholic History
Book • 2016
In this book, Rodney Stark argues that many commonly held ideas about the Catholic Church are based on fiction rather than fact.
He delves into various historical topics such as the Spanish Inquisition, anti-Semitism during World War II, the Dark Ages, the Crusades, and the Church's stance on science and slavery.
Stark presents extensive research to debunk myths and provide a more accurate understanding of the Church's historical role, emphasizing the distinction between official Church teachings and the actions of individual Christians.
The book aims to defend historical honesty rather than to apologize for the Church's actions.
