2. Other books in the same line

[Manuel]

We have read before, in the club, books against the current dominant ideology, such as three books by Cardinal Sarah, The Restoration of Christian Culture by John Senior, or Strangers in a Strange Land: Living the Catholic Faith in a Post-Christian World by Charles Chaput. How does this book compare with others in your opinion?

[Mariangel]

My favorite among all the books mentioned in the opening post, was “God or Nothing” by Cardinal Sarah. I still like it more than “The idol of our age”.

I have liked Mahoney’s book more than Archbishop Chaput’s book, and also more than Cardinal Sarah’s “The power of silence”.

[Manuel]

I liked Cardinal Sarah's God or Nothing: A Conversation on Faith and The Day is Now Far Spent more than Mahoney's book, and The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise about the same. I liked Senior's book somewhat less.

We also read the Benedict Option - how does it rank with these others?

John wrote: "We also read the Benedict Option - how does it rank with these others?"

I may be mistaken, but I think "The Benedict Option" put more emphasis on trying to find a solution to current problems than on diagnosing them, as the other books I mentioned. And I don't believe that the solution is setting groups of families following the rule of St. Benedict.

Not to toot my own horn . . . okay to toot my own horn, a book I co-uthored, "The Greater Reset," analyzes the problem and offers a solution.
