The following series of web interviews with American writers, priests, politicians, thinkers and other public figures represents a dialogue between Catholicism and various aspects of secular culture. Most of the interviewees are Catholic, but not all. Many of them are simply Catholics working in the secular world. Others work in church ministry, but with a focus on engaging cultural and intellectual frontiers beyond Catholicism.
