Catholic Resources on the Net
Edited by John Mack Ockerbloom

Catholic Online ‘On the Web’ Index
“Seeks to provide Internet users with resources and connections to sites and information which are truly Catholic. In doing so, we are guided by the time honored principle that in all those things which must be embraced with Catholic faith we must have unity, in those things which are doubtful or open to discussion we must have liberty, while in all things we must foster and manifest true Christian charity. Thus, Catholic Online will endeavor to provide truly Catholic sites and information consistent with the aforementioned principles, always making choices of content under the guidance of the teaching of the Church’s duly appointed pastors and in harmony with the Magisterium, the Supreme Pontiff together with the bishops, the Church’s legislation and time-honored traditions, the dictates of common sense and intellectual honesty.”
