The '''''Catechism of the Catholic Church''''' is an official document from the [[Vatican]] detailing the religious beliefs of the [[Catholic Church]].

The '''''Catechism of the Catholic Church''''' ([[Latin]]: ''Catechismus Catholicae Ecclesiae'', commonly called simply '''"Catechism"''' or '''"CCC"''') is an official document from the [[Vatican]] that details the religious beliefs of the [[Catholic Church]] in book form. The current catechism was approved and endorsed by [[Pope John Paul II]] in 1992, and is considered the most universal and authoritative Catholic catechism since the ''Roman Catechism'' (or ''"Trent Catechism"'') of 1566.

 

The Catechism does not have a single author, but is instead made up of excerpts of writings from [[saints]] and the [[church fathers]]. It is organized by topic and arranged into numbered sections for ease of access, not unlike the system of chapters and verses in the [[Bible]].
