Garry Wills discusses his book, “Why I am a Catholic.” Wills shares the importance of Catholicism in his own life and his experiences with faith both as a child and as a Jesuit seminarian. He expounds on the history of the Catholic church focusing on the transformations that both the church and the papacy have undergone throughout the course of history. Wills challenges the idea that reform or criticism of the papacy is an assault on the faith itself. Instead, he argues that Catholics can be critical while still remaining loyal to their faith.
