What is Divine Revelation?
In this series, Br. Bugnolo reads aloud and comments on the Catholic Catechism, written by Cardinal Peter Gasparri, and published in English translation in 1932 A. D.. (in PDF, Here)
This Catechetical series is directed to Adults and especially to Parents, each and every one of whom have the primary responsibility in teaching the Catholic Faith to their children. — It may also be very useful to non-Catholics who are studying the Catholic Faith prior to being received into the Catholic Church as members.
Finally, this series is being published by Br. Bugnolo to encourage Catholics with the best “Good News” possible: our Catholic Faith and what it includes, since here at FromRome.info for 12 years, there has been a lot of bad news reported, and human frailty can only take so much, without renewing one’s faith in the wonders God has given in the Catholic religion, which is the only true, consistent and complete form of Christianity since 33 A. D..
In this Episode, Br. Bugnolo explains how and why God has revealed Himself to mankind, and where we are to find these written and unwritten truths that we must believe to be saved.

Thank you Brother Alexis.
YES. That’s it. Thanks!
I clicked on this link many times, but nothing happened. It may be my phone signal, which has been wonky lately, but it seems to be good right now.
At 3:12, you referred to “great channels” that discuss at length our ability to discover God by studying His creation. Can you give examples of those channels? Thank you.

Wow! Those are really good videos! Thank you.
One more question. You said the King James Bible has 66000 errors. Realistically, I am not going to learn to read Hebrew and Greek. I also know, from having learned some French and Spanish, that it is not possible to translate directly and perfectly accurately from one language to another. As someone who is experienced in doing extensive translation, what Bible would you recommend as the best English translation of the original scriptures?
When I have a question, I go to the original Greek or Hebrew. As for English translastions, as you can see there are a great many
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_(translation)
which play games with the original meaning of the text, using dynamic equivalence. The first English translation of the Bible from the Latin Vulgate was the Douay Rheims in 1610, and we Catholics still consider it the best English translation. Its errors are in rendering the Latin in certain passages as if it were the original language, when the Latin is trying to render the Greek or Hebrew and has an entirely different sense.
Are there no translations directly from the original Hebrew and Greek? Or are you saying that they are all dynamic translations and the 1610 Douay Rheims is a formal translation, and therefore more accurate, tho translated from the Latin?
No, many of those translations are from the Hebrew and Greek texts. The Catholic ones, such as Douay Rheims and Msgr. Ronald Knox are from the Vulgate, but the other Catholic ones are mostly from the original languages.
These videos are so helpful! This one in particular reminds me of the Creationism videos you made and which I had my son listen to while driving him to after school activities. At the time he was in sixth grade. One day my son says to me that when a teacher at school was teaching about evolution and Darwin he approached the teacher to tell her that Darwin’s intention was to get God out of the equation. He said that she turned to him and quietly agreed with him but had no choice to teach it because the people who run the schools are atheists and that is what they want taught!
