On Hour 3 of today's Patrick Madrid show, Lyra wants to know about using the phrase "Oh my God" and if that is ok, Elaine asks if the "Beloved Disciple" in the Gospels is John, plus a couple callers chime in about their thoughts on tattoos. Patrick provides quintessential answers to listener questions about the Catholic faith.

• Lyra - Why is it not okay say 'O My God'?

• Elaine – in the gospel, is the apostle Jesus loved John?

• Matt - Elijah brought up to heaven, Christ died for our sins and opened the gates. Elijah died before. Where was Elijah during that time frame?

• Robert - Holy Thursday when the bread and wine was consecrated by the Lord, was it truly consecrated at that time, or did it not come into effect until he died on the cross?

• Break 1

• Mike - On Good Friday during the gospel of John, when Pilate is questioning Jesus and sits him on the bench and presents to the people and asks what should they do with him...I've heard Jesus was on the cross for 6 hours, but if this was the case, I'm confused why there is a discrepancy in the timeline.

• Dawn - Tattoos and addiction...I don't have any, but my daughter has them, and our other daughter has them too. I do think they become very addictive.

• Break 2

• Doug - Doing plays on the altar (for Easter). My daughter was in a play and they depicted the crucifixion. It was on the altar. Is that right? 

• Linda - It's my opinion that when I see a beautiful woman with tattoos...it diminishes her character. It doesn't say she's a bad person, but rather the overall view. I have 5 sisters and none of us have tattoos. I know it's a form of expression.
