Why Aren’t You Catholic?

Staff Apologist Trent Horn asks listeners, “Why Aren’t You Catholic?” Their answers spark some unexpected conversations.

Questions and Topics Covered:

• 02:47 - There are 4,500 religions now on earth and if money was not involved then there would be no religions.
• 16:40 - My Catholic friend said that after we die we become divine, but that sounds Mormon. Also, how can the saints hear our prayers if they don’t have bodies?
• 28:06 - The Christians I’ve been exposed to all my life have been Protestants, and I don’t understand why Catholics include the apocryphal books in the bible.
• 40:22 - It is difficult to become Catholic and I’m held back by the way they worship Mary and the pope.
• 50:50 - I don’t understand why a Church would say that it is the only way and why people would bow to images.
