Callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief. 

Questions Covered:

  • 01:47 - Why would God create the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden if Adam and Eve were not meant to eat from it?

  • 13:21 - Why is the Assumption of Mary a dogma?
