Hi everyone. Does anyone know of any sites that are organized by directory or that are searchable about Sacred Tradition? I am looking for a site where I can look up what Sacred Tradition says about any particular topic. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :help:

At the risk of giving a total obvious answer, I'd say the Catechism. I'm sure you already know that, but maybe you don't know of anyplace online where it can be searched easily. No topical indexes, but these two sites have search engines you can use to search for topics:

http://scborromeo.org/ccc.htm
http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/

The Catechism is also available on the Vatican website (http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc/index.htm), but I like the other two sites better. The Vatican also has the CCC: Compendium available which is a plus.

I'm not sure a list exists. I would love to see it if it does.

Thanks RichSpidizzy. I appreciate your answer. I honestly never really thought to use the Catechism to find what the early Church Fathers say about a specific thing but it does make sense. Thanks.

I would also love to see such a list.
