Não teria como avaliar esse livro, devido ao seu peso, seu conteúdo, suas informações.

De longe, a melhor obra sobre o tema. É um copilado maravilhoso com centenas de citações dos padres da Igreja, comprovando de uma vez por toda que a Igreja nasceu católica.

De fato, "The Fathers Know Better" - "Os pais sabem melhor".
