Book Overview

Aletheia: Or Letters On The Truth Of Catholic Doctrines is a book written by Charles Constantine Pise in 1843. The book is a series of letters written to a Protestant friend, in which Pise defends the doctrines of the Catholic Church. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including the authority of the Church, the role of the Pope, the sacraments, and the doctrine of transubstantiation. Pise draws on scripture, tradition, and the writings of the Church Fathers to support his arguments. He also addresses common objections to Catholicism, such as the charge that the Church is anti-intellectual or that it promotes superstition. Throughout the book, Pise emphasizes the importance of faith and reason, and argues that the Catholic Church provides a coherent and comprehensive worldview that can help individuals to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about Catholicism, as well as for Catholics seeking to deepen their understanding of their faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
