A Guide For Jews To Roman Catholicism

A Jewish friend asked me for a book recommendation for learning about Roman Catholicism (not to convert herself but to understand some of those around her).

I replied:

I was raised a Seventh-Day Adventist and heard 10x as many bad things about Catholics as I did about Jews.

However, I recommend these three novels:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Power_and_the_Glory

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exorcist_(film)

I also recommend this music:

And just go sit in a Catholic church for an hour and meditate…
