Questioning The Faith Vs. Deconstructing The Faith

by Jackie and Bobby Angel

How can we question and seek truth in a healthy way? 

When it comes to doubts or difficulties with the Catholic Faith, questioning isn't a bad thing. After all, if you don't ask questions, how can you get answers? But there's an unhealthy attitude to this questioning that doesn't seek genuine, objective answers. It's called Deconstruction—and it's a dangerous fruit of Postmodernism and Relativism. 

If this all sounds high-brow and complicated, Jackie and Bobby have you covered. It's worth it to hear how you can avoid this philosophical pitfall and spot it from afar. Getting this one wrong can have eternal consequences.
