description: Många ifrågasätter det historiska bruket att be helgon i himlen om deras förbön. Utforska de vanligaste argumenten och den katolska uppfattningen.
excerpt: Det historiska kristna bruket att be våra avlidna bröder och systrar i Kristus - de heliga - om deras förbön har angripits under de senaste hundra åren. Även om bruket går tillbaka till kristendomens tidigaste dagar och delas av katoliker, östortodoxa, andra östliga kristna och till och med av vissa anglikaner, är det fortfarande utsatt för kraftiga angrepp från många inom den protestantiska rörelsen som startade på 1500-talet.

There is a lack of Catholic content in Swedish. It is technically not an issue as the majority of Swedes can speak English, but the theological vocabulary makes it less accessible. I believe that having content in Swedish will make it easier for people to find answers to their questions.

The content is mainly composed of translations of Catholic Answers from English to Swedish. It is initially translated with an AI first and then manually reviewed. A big thanks to CatholicAnswers for their permission to translate their content!

We need reviewers! The goal of a reviewer is to read and correct the machine translated text. You will just need to make sure that the text makes sense and that it uses the correct terms. You do not have to be perfectionist. You can contact us at [email protected]

We also need recomendations of content to prioritise ! Open a new issue here and describe what kind of content you would like to see (ex: objections to Mary, protestantism, etc...).

Thank you ! You can either open a new issue or submit a pull request.

Open a new issue Open a new issue here. Describe the URL of the page where you found the error, and the proposed correction.

Submit a pull request You can also submit a pull request directly.

The translation result is usually pretty good and need little correction but some problems might appear on more advanced content. Just open a new issue, so that we will try to fix it or delete it.
