Scott Hahn's personal library has to be one of the biggest, most impressive libraries in existence. I didn't know what to expect, but, just, wow.

    @@tony1685 What Protestants don't read books outside the Bible? Also if he Bible was perfectly clear why are there hundreds of Protestant Denominations who all say they are "Bible Alone" but come to wildly different conclusions? Why do we need teachers to convey the faith. St. Peter in this letter warned about the results of reading Scripture sithout the guidance of the Church when he said "There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures" (2 Peter 3:16) That's why we see that we need an interpretive body and not our own personal opinions so we should humble ourselves like Philip does to the Ethiopian in the Book of Acts: "So Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” And he said, “*How can I, unless some one guides me* ?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him" (Acts 8:30-31)

    It's very simple, head knowledge does not equate to much in the sight of God. All the wisdom of earth compares to nothing. Catholicism preaches a false works based gospel. Jesus said "it is finished" yet catholics think it's not finished and that their sins need to be paid for in purgatory. It isn't finished, right.. They preach a false gospel that can't save and fully atone for someone. Don't let books fool you. This man prays to saints. We pray to God. Or at least, I hope you do.

Also as Allison said above, there is nothing wrong with praying to Saints, this in no way negates Jesus being the one mediator being God and man. We ask our fellow Christians to pray for us all the time so why not ask those who are in heaven? They are as much a part of the Body of Christ as we are. Again I'm not Catholic but people really shouldn't misrepresent what they actually believe.

That must bring him great happiness having such amazing resource and being able to share it. I'm sure that dramatically increases it's value in his eyes. Memories of scholars and students pouring over research in his private library... I love having a digital library, especially for the efficiency and speed it brings to study but I see the beauty and majesty of having ACTUAL library.

    @@tony1685 No you cannot be able to do that with your fallible knowledge of the Bible. The church - not you - is the pillar and foundation of truth. To say the church is wrong is to reject God's truth. If you disagree with the church, you are ipso facto wrong. Church members can argue among themselves and others outside the church, but once the church speaks it's final. Why? Again, it's because the Bible says the church is the final arbiter, not you tony my friend.

    ​@@tony1685 You are still missing the point. There is the infallible word of God, and then there is your understanding/interpretation of the word of God. There is no problem with the former, the latter is where our disagreement is. You quote Bible verses and you go ahead to claim that your understanding of these verses is correct and the Catholic Church's understanding is incorrect. But what you've continuously failed to realize is that these verses, read in context with other related verses, actually are in harmony with the Catholic interpretation. And I have read the entire Bible many times over on my own. The Catholic Church completes the whole Bible every 3 year cycle. If you go to Catholic Mass everyday for say 30 years, you would have read the entire Bible 30/3 = 10 times total. To reiterate, no single letter in the Bible is being questioned here, instead I'm questioning your understanding of the Bible. Do you get the point now? I'm the one to throw Bible verses at you, not the other way round, because I have the infallible Apostolic Church founded by Christ himself to guide me, while you have the fallible Martin Luther "church" or the "church" you founded yourself to guide you. If we both disagree on what a Gospel verse says, we should go to the church that wrote the Gospels and canonized the Bible. The Bible came from the church. There was no Bible until about 4th century AD. Only one church - the Catholic Church - existed then. Apart from the Christians mentioned in the Bible, you cannot name one Christian from first century AD to 1500 AD who is not Catholic, can you?

Paul and John write much about false gospels and even more about the one true one. The first damn; the second saves. Today's indifferentism towards the Gospel - like every man-made gospel is "good enough" or whatever - is the main cause for the downfall of the Church in our time, I believe.

    As a Catholic libertarian, after Dr. Walter E Williams died recently, Dr. Scott Hahn posted a little memorial about him and how he knew him when Dr. Scott Hahn considered himself a libertarian. I kind of figured that he had some Austrian economics books, and sure enough at the end, you pass by his shelf Mises's biography by Guido Hulsmann and a bunch of other Austrian economics books.

    @@veganworldorder9394 "It depends if he exists or not". Yes, you're right but still asking the question "who created God" shows lack of understanding of what theists mean by God. If a god of a religion was created by something or someone that something or someone would be the "real" and only God. So there either is or there isn't an ultimate being. If there is (as theists claim) we call it God. It does not make sense to ask who created something e.g. (god) if that something (god) is not an ultimate being (God). So the problem with "who created God" is not that it questions the existence of God (which is fine) but it doesn't even understand it. If there is no ultimate being, we need to accept two logical possibilities: 1) There is an infinite chain of causes which many philosophers showed that there cannot be an ACTUAL regress of causes. 2) Or we violate the principle of casualty but then we accept that for example a rabbit coming into existence in front of us does not need an explanation.

    This is SO helpful, as an illustration of what an individual can achieve by way of amassing and using a collection. Particularly encouraging are the spines: where Library of Congress catalogue numbers are assigned (as we see from the spine labels), waste of time through mis-shelving is minimized, and it becomes easy to build a computerized shelflist. I hope now to take this as an inspiration or a role model, as I work on bringing order to a smaller, science-centred collection (for the most part housed in a 36-square-metre space which I have just acquired, a former Soviet post office in Tõravere's one high-rise building, on the flank of the Tartu Observatory dark-sky compound). - (signed) Toomas Karmo, Tõravere Hamlet, in Nõo Rural Municipality, Estonia
