Catholic Identity

In "Catholic Identity," author Michele Dillon delves into the complex relationship between progressive Catholics and the Church. Drawing from extensive interviews with openly gay and lesbian individuals, advocates for women's ordination, and pro-choice supporters, Dillon explores the motivations behind why these individuals remain engaged with their faith despite their disagreements with Vatican teachings on sexuality and gender. Published by Cambridge University Press in 1999, this thought-provoking paperback spans 300 pages, offering a unique perspective on the dynamics of faith and identity within the Catholic community. Discover the resilience and commitment of pro-change Catholics as they navigate their beliefs in a contemporary context.
