My title explains itself. But it's misleading. There are more than 40 reasons.

In fact, there are at least 10 to the 82nd power, which, I am told, is the number of atoms in the universe. And that's just in ordinary matter, which makes up only four-point-nine percent of the universe, the rest being dark matter and dark energy.

Each of my reasons is an independent point, so I have not organized this book by a succession of chapters or headings. After all, most people only remember a few big ideas or separate points after reading or listening to a book. I've never heard anyone say "Oh, that was a good continuous-process-of-logically-ordered-argumentation" but I've often heard people say, "Oh, that was a good point."

Which takes me back to my main point: "Why are you a Catholic?" is a good question.

A good question deserves a good answer. Here are 40 of mine.

Peter Kreeft is a gem. He's a storehouse of knowledge and wisdom. He loves the Church and makes me love it more each time I listen to him.

Great summary of the faith!

Great Apologetics, I will be listening to this many times over. Very intellectually simplified, must read or listen.

Truth

All teenagers, young adults and adults need to read this book before throwing away the treasure chest of Christ and His bride the Catholic Church.

Authoritative & Concise Reasons for Being Catholic!

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Filled with thoughtful, biblical, serious, and playfully “paradoxical” reasons to be Catholic. A great book for non-Catholics and Catholics alike!

Clever, insightful, and inspiring

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Professor Kreeft provides an outstanding defense of his Catholic faith that is readily accessible to all. It will be of particular interest to Protestants who are curious about the Catholic faith.

A great summary of the Catholic Faith

I agree with everything he said. I am a cradle Catholic! I was away for awhile but I’m back! Never to leave again!

Speaks for Itself

Loved Peter’s work. As a formed protestant to catholic convert, this work is perfect! I pray that all come into Christ’s True Body

Excellent and Beautiful

Dr. Kreeft has written a lot of good stuff, given a lot of good lectures, and in general been a great resource.

This book is short, but it also manages to be comprehensive.

Dr. Kreeft once had a Lighthouse Media talk, "Why Every Person in the World Ought to be a Roman Catholic". This book is like that talk except that it is more personal.

This book is a great summary of the case for Catholicism.

Succinct rational clarity

You can’t fault this man’s logic. He breaks everything down, including counter arguments and challenges for those who are agnostic or atheist. Try the agnostic’s prayer if you are doubting, and see what happens.

If you’re searching for truth, this is a good place to start

Clear-eyed and beautiful. Kreft's lucidity, especially the discussion with his father and his mother's synthesis on purgatory, helped me gain clarity on my own reasons for being Catholic.
