Questions Covered:

02:45 – Some Protestants don’t believe in infant baptism, what does that tell us about their understanding of sin and how does that compare to the Catholic view?
12:16 – I understand the Catholic teaching on cremated remains is to not separate them. But if that’s the case, why do we have cases where certain saints’ body parts are in different locations? It seems like that contradicts the policy on cremated remains.
20:20 – How do Catholics understand Purgatory in light of Hebrews 9:27?
24:44 – How do you determine what a saint is a patron of? Like how does someone become patron saint if pilots when airplanes weren’t even invented yet when they lived?
34:45 – Can you comment on the different translations of Luke 1:28, why Protestant Bibles say “greetings o favored one” and why Catholic bibles say “hail full of grace”?
44:45 – What is the Catholic interpretation of 1 John 5:1 with regard to baptismal regeneration? I’m struggling to square “if you believe you’ve been born of God” with having to be baptized.
51:50 – I practice no meat on Fridays. How do I keep up this practice during times when there are lots of feast days or solemnities on Fridays?
