Fr. Allen Hoffa joins Patrick to discuss The Hidden Sin
(2:54) why are sins in the dark have such power over us?
How does isolation make for a vicious cycle?
Ted - I'm an older Catholic. I disagree that everything is hidden...everything is out in the open. There's no shame. People are encouraged to do it.
(14:52) Carl - When I was younger and in the world, I was looking for love in all the wrong places. Thinking a man would make me whole and happy. Ended up getting date raped. I was so lost in my 20's. I can appreciate people who have fallen and the grace the of God.

(27:00) Break 1
 Jill - Is an impure thought ever a mortal sin?
(30:06) Steve - Timmerie had someone on that said men think about sex every 6 to 10 seconds. I've struggled for many years. Age 60 now and I've never held a girls hand or kissed her, but I struggle with masturbation.
Mike – How do you stop after you get addicted?
