  • 33:53 - Is the Catholic Church the Church of God? And if so, then aren’t all other religions different and false?
  • 41:56 - When you are having a heated conversation about the Catholic faith, how often do you think it is because of a misunderstanding of terms?
  • 45:29 - Do you think there will be a chance to waive some Catholic doctrine in order to connect with Protestants?
