Review # 2 was written on 2015-03-23 00:00:00 Carole A Holland For all you Catholics (and non-Catholics) who wonder what the different symbols, numbers, Saints, and other "Catholic Culture" things really mean: GET THIS BOOK! Seriously - I am a life-long Catholic (and a well-read and educated one, particularly about my faith), and I still learned many things from reading this book (e.g., the origin of Nativity sets/creches, the significance of the 153 fish pulled in at the end of the Gospel of John, different Saints I'd never heard of before). I just recently gave this book to my sister as a Christmas present (because she wish-listed one of those "New Age" numerology books by Doreen Virtue). She loves that this book gives an authentically Catholic understanding of what various Christian symbols mean (including the infamous "666" of Revelation). This book will strengthen the faith of those already strong, as well as pull others back from the brink of secularism and New Age "cosmology/psychology". Highly recommended for all Catholics, as well as those who want to understand their Catholic friends (and converts in the family) better.
