14 - The Catholic Church Pt. 1

Crash Course Catholicism

Why do we need a Church to tell us what's right and wrong? Can't we just rely our own consciences? Why isn't the Church more open to different opinions?
In this episode we discuss the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
This episode covers Part One, Section Two, Chapter Three, Article Nine, Paragraphs 1-3 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (Points 748-870).
