What is the difference between a mozetta and a mitre? What are the six precepts of the Church? What is the difference between an annulment and a divorce? Who is entitled to wear the pallium? When would a bishop carry a crozier? How do you wear vestments? What Orders were around in the Ninth Century and how did they live? Getting the fine details right in Catholicism can lend deeper authenticity to your project. When you want to engage in historical drama or create new fiction, and want to get accuracy to convey a greater sense of reality to the subject, I can help you out. Even a critique of the Church should be based on critiquing the actual beliefs and practices, the historical record and not just a “straw man” or even another religion. Catholicism does not hold the same teachings as the prosperity Gospel Evangelicals, for instance, but if you write a story or are producing a film, then what happens if you’ve got it all wrong? Consult an expert!
