Michael Coren, "Why Catholics Are Right"
Michael Coren, "Why Catholics Are Right"
ISBN: 0771023219 | 2011 | EPUB | 240 pages | 2 MB/440 KB
A practicing Catholic defends the faith and offers a passionate response to current anti-Catholic opinion.
In Why Catholics Are Right, author, columnist, and practicing Catholic Michael Coren examines four main aspects of Catholicism as they are encountered, understood, and more importantly, misunderstood today. Beginning with a frank examination of the tragedy of the Catholic clergy abuse scandal, Coren addresses some of them most common attacks on Catholics and Catholicism. Tracing Catholic history, he deconstructs popular and frequent anti-Catholic arguments regarding the Church and the Crusades, the Inquisition, Galileo, and the Holocaust. He examines Catholic theology and central pillars of Catholic belief, explaining why Catholics believe what they do: papal infallibility, immaculate conception, the Church rather than Bible alone. Finally, he explores the dignity of life argument and why it is so important to Catholicism.
In this challenging and thought-provoking book, Michael Coren demolishes often propagated myths about the Church's beliefs and teachings, and in doing so, opens a window onto Catholicism, which, he writes, "is as important now as it ever was and perhaps even more necessary."

IMAX Vikings Journey to the New Worlds x264 720p AC3 HDTV-MVGroup
Vikings! They came from the North and soon the legends would say that
they did not know fear. For hundreds of years they were another name for
terror. They sailed icy oceans and narrow rivers striking far inland
without warning without mercy. However the truth about the Vikings is
far more complex. Much of Europe s traditions technology and
institutions come to us from these fierce men of the North. England
Germany Russia along with their homeland of Scandinavia all bear the
Viking s mark today. Shot on location in Iceland Greenland and
Newfoundland this breathtaking IMAX® film joins the Viking warriors
explorers and settlers as they set out in search of new lands. The North
Atlantic Sagas come to life as we follow Eric the Red and his son Leif
Ericsson first to Greenland and then on to North America 500 years
before Columbus. State-of-the-art digital graphics dramatically
illustrate the unique shipbuilding techniques that were the key to
propelling the Vikings across the Atlantic and into history.

Lost Faces Of The Bible (Complete)
Lost Faces of the Bible
The Lost Faces of the Bible, a four-part documentary series, blends myth-busting archaeology with dramatic recreations and forensic investigation. Having been granted unprecedented access to four ancient skulls from the Holy Land, each episode seeks to accurately reconstruct a famous face.
Travelling across the globe, archaeologists and scholars separate fact from myth, while a team of forensic anthropologists and artists put flesh on bone, using both traditional and state-of-the-art methods of facial reconstruction. An engaging narrative develops around each skull as the experts assemble clues to rebuild not only a face, but the life and times of a bygone era. Stepping into the past viewers will finally come face to face with some of the most legendary characters of the Bible. A theological journey not to be missed, by any measure.
