Adopts Plan of the Catholic Catechism

The word catechism as a variety of meanings, however, the most widely accepted one comes from the Greek and means Echo. This application is a way to echo or repetition of the tenants of the Catholic Church. Before the invention of printing in 1400, the beliefs and traditions of the church were given orally. They asked people to repeat again and again until they were acquired, as an echo. Even at the time of Jesus the teacher teaches Scripture asking again and again to repeat, until they were acquired. This was a common form of education even before the time of Jesus. But this time the subject raised Echo.
After the invention of the printing press changed the way things could be taught. Beliefs were written and there were many questions and answers to help with the books of catechesis. In the 15th century the influence of catechisms San / San Pedro and Robert Bellarmine became the pillar of the process of catechesis.
But it was not until the 90s that the framer Vatican II, Pope John Paul II acknowledged something that many overlook. Young Catholics after Vatican II and was severely under catechized that in October 1992, he published an Apostolic Constitution of the deposit of faith which announces the need for a Catechism of the Catholic Church. The date of his release coincided with the 30th anniversary of Vatican II. The Catechism of the Catholic Church The goal is to fill all the missing data the majority of Catholics who no longer know how memory memory. There was a way for every Catholic family to have a desktop reference for any question you can ask your children or any other friend of the faith. Many of these people from other faiths still challenge us to try and now with the Catechism, every Catholic is armed to answer these questions.
As many look back since Vatican II there is a paradigm shift in the church of the self that is moved to the community. Then Cardinal Karol Wojtyla, who later became known as Pope John Paul II, in the drafting of the documents of Vatican II said that to help you have to help others and outlined a framework that speaks of acts of helping others to help itself. Other changes in the church, although it allows the pope to say we need a Catechism written to allow a reference to his Catholic faith. Seen as a reference the Catechism of the Catholic doctrine, which was something missing.
In tandem, the U.S. the bishops also went to work writing a full version for Catholics in the United States. The format is totally different, but the message is the same. In June 2000, was taken by the task of creating a Catechism which is unique in America. This book was to address the local situation and culture, but the unity and loyalty to the faith in his teachings are in Pope John Paul II's catechism book and gave it a more readable format of the reference desk the Vatican.
