Faith Forensics.org

Welcome to FaithForensics.org, where we examine the truths of the Catholic Faith!

Whether you are Catholic or non-Catholic, we hope that this page is a resource for you on your faith journey. The universal Catholic Church fervently seeks Christ's desire to "be sanctified in truth" that those who believe in Jesus "may all be one" [John 17:19-21].  There are misunderstandings that hinder Christian unity, so we pray that we may be a help for you in understanding the truths of the Catholic Faith!
