The Baltimore Catechism was the de facto text for Catholic instruction in the United States from 1885 until the late-1960s. However, as early as 1829, the American bishops expressed a desire (not realized until 1885) for a catechism suited to the people of America. Robert Bellarmine, SJ, published a Small Catechism, which was translated into many languages. The Baltimore Catechism was a Catechism of Christian Doctrine prepared as a result of Third Council of Baltimore. The Baltimore Catechism and the Catechism of the Catholic Church are not the same thing. Are these the same?ĭear Reader: Thank you for your question.
Primarily my question is on the Baltimore Catechism, which I studied under the good sisters, and the quotations you spelled out in your article, among other things. Dear Father: I was wondering about your June answer in the Telegraph concerning the church’s position on capital punishment.
