Motto: "Step into a friendly universe." This is a new site for Catholics, run by the same people who run Envoy magazine. Some of their services are free, some are not. You can get free email here, and they have free discussion boards. They also offer online articles about various aspects of the faith, and a helpful little Catholic news corner where you can find out what's going on in the church. I suspect this community will grow quite a bit in the future.

CATHOLIC COMMUNITY
It's the largest Catholic club at Yahoo. It's usually pretty active. It's basically a place to talk about Catholic stuff: whether we're discussing Catholic issues, sharing novenas and favorite saints, posting prayer requests, or exploring the theological implications of aliens. Things occasionally get a little heated, but we're a pretty polite bunch most of the time!

LITERTE CATHOLICS UNITE
A club for Catholics and non-Catholic Christians to talk about great authors like G.K. Chesterton, Graham Greene, Evelyn Waugh, Flannery O'Connor, and more. Sometimes this club is a little slow . . . and sometimes it's a lot silly. Join and save the world from atheistic intellegentsia! Ok, not really, but you get the point.

CATHOLIC QUESTIONS
You've got questions? We've got answers! At least, we hope we do. A team of enthusiastic Catholics and friendly Protestants is on call to answer your questions about the Catholic Church and about the differences between Catholicism and Protestantism. Sometimes we have pretty lively debates here. If you want answers on the Papacy, purgatory, prayers to saints, etc, stop by and scan through old posts, or ask a question of your own. If we don't know the answer, chances are we can find it out.

This is probably the greatest Catholic website known to man. David Armstrong has done an amazing job of collecting information about the Catholic Church. If you've ever wondered whether the papacy is Biblical, where sola scriptura came from, whether you should be Catholic (or why your otherwise intelligent friends are Catholic!) check this website out. If you believe that Catholics are not Biblical Christians, or that they aren't Christians at all, please give this place your thoughtful attention. Sure, you may not have a change of heart, but you will have a chance to study the Catholic arguments so that you can refute them. If you are a Catholic who is often questioned about your faith, you'll find helpful material here. Whoever you are and whatever you believe, you owe it to yourself to visit this site today and give it your honest attention.

Subjects include basic Catholic doctrine, the Bible, Marian studies, and a study of the Catechism. No, you don't have to be Catholic to take one of these classes.
