A thing that I love of Catholicism, as a woman with a conservation of the arts and an history degree, is how we interpret the Bible: Sola Scriptura is the stuff that drove me away from becoming a lutheran (mixed with a lots of other reasons, such as the Eucharist ofc).

Catholic way of reading and understanding the Bible is so beautiful and complex and I love learning more about it. I love how philology, anthropology, history and other disciplines all contribute to our understanding of it.

It just adds so much depth and richness and beauty! I am so in love with it ❤️
