DonecRequiescat with Matt D'Antuono
I am a physics teacher who also has a degree in philosophy. I wear a pocket protector and I attend mass at least weekly. I read philosophy, theology, and physics books for fun. I am interested in the pursuit of Truth, wherever it (or He) leads, and helping others along the way, and I enjoy sharing what I learn and find interesting. So far, my search for truth has led me to the Roman Catholic Church. After trying to disprove it, I came to a point where I could not deny it. Despite degrees in physics and philosophy from secular institutions, everything in my experience and education has led me to believe. Matthew D'Antuono is a member of the Catholic Speakers Organization, CatholicSpeakers.com.
