Rich - Given the election results last night, how can you explain Catholics voting against Catholic teaching? (00:53)
Patrice - I vote for who I think is best to represent all the people. I'm not necessarily supporting abortion. Am I right in supporting who I voted for? (06:59)
Chris - If I do all the steps for the plenary indulgence for All Souls Day, does it apply to just them or me or both? (15:48)
Cecilia - Very well-meaning Catholic friends who are blaming the Jews for what's going on in the election. I don't understand it. Feels very antisemitic. (18:02)
Lauro – How do I maintain a relationship with a family member who recently had a same-sex marriage? (27:18)
Chris - Can you explain all the weirdness taking place in the Catholic church lately? Such as taking away the Marian titles, saying there's no just wars, banning capital punishments, women in synods, women running offices… (33:45)
James - Confessions of St. Augustine (book). Want to know if I got the right book or the right version. (43:47)
Angel - Thanks for your firm stance on what's happening around us. My fiancé is overseas and many are dying because of Hamas. I'm shocked about attitudes people are taking. Ancestors fought because they wanted to be free. It doesn't matter if you're immigrant or been here for years. We need to fight for safety. (46:03)
