How to Survive Being Married to a Catholic: A Frank and Honest Guide to Catholic Attitudes, Beliefs, and Practices

This lively cartoon book cheerfully and cheekily explains the ins and outs of Catholicism to those contemplating (or already in) an interfaith marriage. How to Survive Being Married to a Catholic uses cartoon characters and light-hearted humor to describe just what makes Catholics tick. Michael Henesy and Rosemary Gallagher provide straightforward answers to questions such as:
# What does the Bible mean to Catholics?
# What is the place of Mary in Catholic belief?
# Why do Catholics confess their sins to a priest?
# Why don't Catholic priests get married?
# Why are Catholics so hung up on the sacraments?
# How is it that some Catholics can get a divorce?
# Why is the Catholic Church so preoccupied with sex?
# Why do Catholics pray to statues and crucifixes?

Closing with a short dictionary of essential Catholic terms and a time-line board game centering on milestones in the history of the Catholic Church, this book is an even-handed, non-starchy presentation of what it means to be a Catholic.
