If you haven’t already done this, may I suggest that before coming to the forums with a question about “what Catholics teach on a particular subject”, first ‘check it out’ right on this website’s library. There is quite a lot of information. You can also check out “This Rock” magazine and search there for topics–they also cover quite a lot and give references, etc.
Then instead you can say, “I read in the Library here, or on This Rock, that Catholics teach X about Y. I am curious about this in X (or Y). Can you explain further?” It will make things easier for you and us, and instead of getting 100 people saying half a dozen things (in slightly different words, trying to explain), you’ll have 100 people responding to half a dozen proven and researched and CONSISTENTLY expressed teachings. Much less ‘repetition’ and confusion would result.
