There is one virtue often displayed by the Catholic Church; tolerance to critical literature. This has also become a hall-mark response by all Christians to the literature that assail the authenticity of Christian faith. All literature that have scathingly attacked Christian faith have always been received with calmness laced up with intellectual response.
But not violence. Only to have the same literature silenced to oblivion through the power of time. We are aware of the books like Berber Thiering’s Christ the Man, David Yallop’s In God’s Name, Dan Brown’s Da vinci Code and Jewarlal Nehru’s Glimpses of History, how they demeaned Christianity and how they gradually simmered into dark corners of the world memory.
