Thanks. The Catechism does have a good index which I use all the time for study and reference, but for quick apologetics purposes, it’s still to big to wade through. Thus my attempt to put together a smaller, leaner “cheat sheet” that hits on the most common topics that come up in Apologetics conversations.
 
Didn’t Catholic Answers have one in a promotion for some apologetics materials they were selling? This was awhile back.

Thank you Fidelis. I now have a copy of your cheat sheet in the back of my catechism. I’m sure it will prove usefull.
 
1345 in the CCC shows that the Mass was celebrated by early christians by quoting ST. Justin Martyr. This is helpful in dealing with people who think it was a later invention.

Great! Exactly the kind of thing I was looking for.

Anyone have any other suggestions?
 
Great idea Fidelis!

How about “To Jesus through Mary” – 2764?
2764 Mary gave her consent in faith at the Annunciation and maintained it without hesitation at the foot of the Cross. Ever since, her motherhood has extended to the brothers and sisters of her Son "who still journey on earth surrounded by dangers and difficulties."28 Jesus, the only mediator, is the way of our prayer; Mary, his mother and ours, is wholly transparent to him: she “shows the way” (hodigitria), and is herself “the Sign” of the way, according to the traditional iconography of East and West.

Excellent. I can list the two suggestions as:

Mary, As Secondary Mediator 2764
Mass, Antiquity of 1345

Keep 'em coming…
 
Thanks for the great cheat sheet. It is something that will come in handy for sure. I will make sure to pass it on.
