I did not read this whole volume, but I read the lecture "The Beauty of Life."

I have not read this whole collection, but I had read "Faith and Private Judgement." What follows is a summary of that particular piece: John Henry Cardinal Newman asserts his claim that those who are not Catholics are not so because they do not have the virtue of faith that makes the practice of faith possible. He claims that early faith required that people believe the words of the Apostles without exercising personal judgment and that faith has not changed since that time. Rating: 3/5
(Note: this rating is not an evaluation of the truth of the claims presented in the work; it merely reflects my own enjoyment/appreciation of it.)
