Questions Covered:

  • 03:00 - If you’ve lived a good life, but do something serious at the end of your life that could possibly be a rejection of God, will all be lost, and you’ll lose your salvation? 
  • 10:15 - What caused Protestants to form and split off from the Catholic Church? How close is the Protestant church to reunification with Rome? 
  • 16:45 - Are fetal cells lines still alive and united to a soul? Is there a soul present and animating those cells? 
  • 22:24 - If someone innocent was going to die and a priest steps in, offering his life instead, would that be suicide and a mortal sin? Would that priest go to hell? 
  • 33:20 - How can I be sure that I have really confessed and repented of all my sins? 
  • 40:50 - I am not Catholic. I consider myself to be a methodological naturalist. Why do Catholics claim that naturalism is false? 
  • 48:56 - Why should we choose the Catholic Church over any other church that does not hold to Sola Scriptura? 
  • 51:50 - Is it ever appropriate to stay the night, not in the same room, with a person that one is dating? I live in the same town as my girlfriend and regularly stay at her house, so I don’t have to make the 20-minute drive home.
