Whatever you want. It all ties together in the fullness of
Catholicism. Rather than questioning specific doctrines, maybe you can
come up with some questions about the basic premise, which is that the
Catholic Church is God's One Church. That is more nearly the heart of
the matter. There are definite reasons for believing that, not the
least of which has to do with the Prophecy in Isaias regarding
"Immanuel." Appropriate, since we are about to enter the Advent
Season.

Perhaps a good place to start would be the connection between the
following two passages of Scripture:

Matthew 1:23
Matthew 28:20
