Episode 16: The Sacraments part 1 · The Uncensored Catholic

0:01
Hey, y'all, welcome today's show. Today imus start a new series building
0:07
on what we discussed last week about the authority given to the Church by Jesus.
0:13
And this also comes from my book Confirmation, Autobiography of Faith. It
0:19
is, as I've said before, partially an autobiography of faith as said,
0:24
but also someone a book on apologetics that will help you hopefully better understand Catholicism
0:33
and defend Catholicism if need be. So we'll get into the sacraments. Not
0:39
only did the authority vested in the apostles by our Lord give them the authority
0:43
to teach and correct on matters of doctrine and morals, but the power to
0:47
bind and loose also gave them the unique power of the sacraments. There are
0:53
seven sacraments Baptism, confirmation, the Eucharist, reconciliation, anointing, the sick,
0:59
marriage, ordination. Of these two predate Christianity, Baptism and marriage and
1:06
are not exclusive Catholicism. Just as John the Baptists baptized before Jesus began his
1:11
ministry, one does not have to be a priest to baptize. Lacking a
1:15
priest, anyone, even a non Christian can baptize someone if someone as the
1:19
person believes in Our Lord, and water is available, and the words in
1:23
the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit must be
1:27
used or the Holy Ghost, you know, if you want to go back
1:30
to the older way of saying it. In times of wars, famines,
1:34
epidemics, and natural disasters, those wishing to become Christian have had to seek
1:38
bapti baptism from anyone available and willing. Sometimes tragically, people who desire to
1:45
receive baptism were killed or died before anyone can perform the right. The Church
1:49
teaches that such people are baptized through their earnest desire and their own blood.
1:55
Marriage, of course, has been practicing sit on humanity by all peoples,
1:59
but as important to point out the Catholic belief in these two sacraments. Although
2:05
they may be common to all, Catholics firmly believe the words of Jesus that
2:07
one must be baptized to be a Christian and to be saved only if one
2:13
is another religion and or completely ignorant of baptism. Would the lack of being
2:19
baptized not be a sin of a mission? Regardless Baptism seals the candidate and
2:24
joins him to the body of Christ. Baptism protects one from unwilling demonic possession
2:30
and opens the whole soul to the Holy Spirit. Baptism binds the Christian to
2:36
Christ. It brings us into the Body of Christ. It's very troubling that
2:44
so many Protestant denominations these days say that baptism is just symbolic and unnecessary.
2:50
Jesus said specifically, you had to be baptized. He specifically told as a
2:55
possibles to baptize people. You know, if Jesus said it, just do
3:00
it. I mean, you know, Jesus said, if you love me,
3:01
you'll keep my commandments. Well, if you love Jesus, I don't
3:05
care if you're a seven day administer or whatever a Southern Baptists, I don't
3:09
care what you are. Right. Do what he said, and he said
3:14
be baptized. You may not understand it. There are whole lot of things
3:17
that I don't understand, But if God says that, it's true. As
3:23
far as marriage, the Catholic belief in marriage is exactly the words of Christ.
3:27
He taught that marriage was a permanent union of binding together of two souls
3:30
to the Jews. He said that divorce was only allowed in certain extreme cases
3:36
and due to the hardness of their hearts. Basically, he's saying this is
3:38
not the way it ought to be and the new law Christianity. The Catholic
3:44
Church does not allowed divorce. Spouses may separate, but are not free to
3:46
remarry unless he received an annoyment from the Church. Just as our Lord gave
3:52
his church the power to bind, he gave it alone the power to loose.
3:57
Annoyments may be granted on certain very specific grounds and are in no way
4:01
like a civil divorce, and an norment is a serious spiritual decision in which
4:06
the Catholic Church seeks to do what is best for both spouses and the children.
4:12
The Church, through her priests and authorized counselors, will make every effort
4:15
toward reconciliation. The annoyment may not be granted. For instance, my parents
4:21
annoyment was granted on the grounds that my father had been married and divorced before
4:27
he and my mother married. In the eyes of the church, he was
4:30
not free to marry again as his first marriage had never been annulled. Spousal
4:34
abuse and infidelity are often valid grounds for annulment because they may show that the
4:40
genuine love necessary to form a valid union was not present, or that one
4:45
or both partners may not have fully committed to the marriage. Anyone forced into
4:49
marriage may also seek in annulment. Issues such as these invalidate the vowels taken
4:55
in the sacrament of marriage. You know, when you say your vows,
4:59
you're saying I can before God that I truly love this person and I plan
5:02
to spend the rest of my life with him, and I have you know,
5:05
nothing preventing me from that. Well, a lot of marriages are invalid
5:12
on those specific grounds. I mean, you know, if a teenage girl
5:15
gets pregnant and her parents forced her to marry the boy and she's not really
5:19
in love with him, that's not a valid marriage. If if the guy
5:26
didn't love her in the first place and was you know, sleeping around,
5:30
and maybe it's just marrying her for family's money, not a valide marriage.
5:32
Okay. Basically, if if someone's abusive and they're beating their partner up,
5:41
that's a sign of probably they didn't love the person in the first place,
5:45
So definite grounds there. But a priest or accounts or appointed by the diocese
5:51
is going to look at the specifics of the case. If someone's mentally deficient,
5:58
if they are suffering from mental illness, or they're not, you know,
6:02
terribly bright, we will say, I guess mentally retarded. In this
6:06
case, they may not understand the vowels. That's another valid reason. But
6:15
I mean that's not for the church to decide, because only the Church is
6:17
that authority. In this era of civil marriage, where people are married by
6:25
judges or you know, ship captains and such, people don't understand that this
6:30
is a religious sacrament, an actual binding of two souls together, and only
6:35
truly, only the Church has the ability to bind two souls together, and
6:41
only the Church has ability to loose two souls. As you can see,
6:46
valid grounds for a norment go to the heart of the meaning of marriage.
6:49
These are spiritual matters, not not legal concepts. In the civil divorce by
6:56
no means is you know what people always often say, we fell out of
6:59
love. That's not a valid reason for annullment. No, it's not.
7:03
Or simply getting tired of your spouse or being attracted to another person, again
7:09
not grounds for annulment. And the leading cause for divorce is actually financial problems,
7:14
and by no means is that grounds for an ennuyment. The Catholic Church
7:18
uses the authority granted to it by Jesus Christ to decide what constitutes a valid
7:23
marriage. One very important. Only the Catholic Church can say what constitutes a
7:28
valid marriage. The Catholic Church was the church to decide, No, polygamy
7:31
is not allowable anymore. The Catholic Church says gay marriage is allowable, I
7:38
mean, etc. And the Catholic Church has the right, the power given
7:45
by God to annulla marriage and to go even further than that, and you
7:48
know, forbid artificial birth control. Say that what you do in your marriage
7:54
is either moral or not, depending on the teachings of the Christ, the
7:59
teachings of the Church Church, ensured by Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
8:03
Protestant churches really don't even dare or try to dictate such matters anymore. They
8:07
know they don't have that authority granted by God. You will rarely, if
8:11
ever, enter a Protestant church and hear a sermon against birth control. Most
8:18
Christians would agree if they look at the development of doctrine and then the words
8:24
of the Bible and all that that artificial birth control is immoral. But you're
8:28
not going to walk into a Methodist church and hear a sermon about, you
8:33
know, not using birth control. It's just not going to happen. And
8:37
these days you're gonna it's a very rare church, you're gonna find it's gonna
8:41
say anything against homosexual unions. I mean, they'll probably I don't know,
8:48
if the subject of Mormonism comes up or something. They'll probably rail against polygamy.
8:52
But then you ask them, where in the Bible does it outlaw polygamy?
8:56
Well, it doesn't. The Pope, Pope Saint Clement outlawed polygamy,
9:01
and all churches Christian churches have followed suit, except for the quasi Christian Latter
9:07
day Saints Church, which is not really Christian. That's just it's become a
9:15
cultural norm. But you say, where's that in the Bible, they can't
9:18
tell you because it's not there. Another sacrament that is very misunderstood these days
9:26
is confirmation. Confirmation is a valid sacrament only when enacted by the Catholic Church.
9:31
Yes, when I was a child ten years old or so, I
9:35
was confirmed Methodist. That meant nothing. Honestly, it means absolutely nothing.
9:39
The Methodist Church does not have the power to bind and loose. Confirmation is
9:45
a sacrament that brings one into the Church. Only when one is confirmed by
9:50
Catholic priest does one receive the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Now, wow,
9:56
does that sound a little arrogant. Well, let's see what the Bible
10:00
says about it. Acts eight. When the apostles in Jerusalem heard the Samaria
10:05
had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
10:09
and they went down there and prayed for them to receive the Holy Spirit,
10:13
for as yet He had not come down on any of them. They had
10:16
only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid hands
10:20
on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. When Simon saw that the
10:24
spirit was given through the laying on of hand. Simon was a magician,
10:28
He was actually a very famous magician. The apostles rejected him. Saint Peter
10:37
told him that he would have no part in Christianity because he was a wicked
10:39
man. According to the words of who you think was it, I think
10:46
it was Saint Justin Martyr, if I remember correctly. He tells the whole
10:50
history of how Simon went and became a He called himself a messiah. He
10:56
started his own church, and somewhere in the Roman Empire that's escaping me,
11:03
probably around Samaria, Okay, if that's where he was living, right.
11:07
He said he was the son of God, and he led a lot of
11:09
people astray, and there were statues idols built to him. A cult leader,
11:18
but he was also a magician. He trafficked with demons, as they
11:20
say, he could predict the future, and he could work magic. It
11:26
says when Simon saw the spirit was given through the laying on of the apostle's
11:28
hands, he offered them money, with the words, give me the same
11:33
power, so that anyone I lay my hands on will receive the Holy Spirit.
11:37
Peter answered me, your silver be lost forever, and you with it
11:41
for thinking that money could buy what God has given for nothing. You have
11:45
no share, no part in this. God can see how your heart is
11:48
warped. Repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that
11:52
this scheme of yours may be forgiven. It is plain to me that you
11:56
are held in bitterness of gall and in the chains of sin. Simon replied,
12:01
pray to the Lord for me yourself, so that none of these things
12:03
you have spoken may happen to me. A lot of people will say,
12:07
okay, if you believe in well, it says in the Bible. No
12:11
one can say that Jesus is Lord, would unless the spirit lead him,
12:16
unless you know, but you know what it says elsewhere of the Bible.
12:20
In fact, the devil himself recognized Jesus. The demons said, Jesus,
12:26
son of God, depart from us. You do not have to be a
12:31
Christian to believe that Jesus is Lord. And Simon the Magician believe fully that
12:39
Jesus was Lord, and that the apostles alone had the power to lay their
12:43
hands on that's the sacrament of confirmation and to transfer to give people the Holy
12:50
Spirit. But he rejected God. He believed in God. Judas believed in
12:56
God. They rejected. And you know, Simon said, up a false
13:03
religion, as many have done. Joseus Smith, you know, for instance,
13:11
Martin Luther would be another really good example of someone who believes in Jesus
13:16
but rejects the words of Jesus, rejects the truth of Jesus, rejects the
13:22
Church of Jesus, and in this instance we see only the apostles when they
13:28
went there had the ability to give these people who are already baptized the Holy
13:31
Spirit the fullness of the Holy Spirit. As I said, baptism opens one
13:37
to the spirit. Confirmation gives one the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Of
13:41
the Holy Spirit is lost anytime you commit a mortal sin. That's why we
13:46
have the sacrament of confession, also ordained, given clear instructions by Jesus Christ
13:56
himself when he said to his apostles, those who you forgive forgiven, those
14:01
who sends you retain, they are retained. We'll get into the sacrament of
14:05
confession, you know, a little bit later, but it's very important,
14:09
very important to understand that the Catholic Church, through the Apostles, through the
14:18
authority of Jesus Christ himself, only through the sacrament of confirmation does one receive
14:24
the fullness of the Spirit. There are millions and millions of good Protestants who
14:28
have been baptized, hopefully, and who believe in God, and who have
14:33
a measure of the spirit. The most spirit filled Protestant will never have the
14:39
full measure of the Holy Spirit, nowhere near as much as say a perhaps
14:45
a mentally retarded Catholic that doesn't even fully understand what's going on. They will
14:50
be filled with the Holy Spirit. And really a mentally retarded person will usually
14:58
stay very pure in their heart, and they're like a lot of them are
15:03
living saints. I mean, anyone who thinks aborting a child because they are
15:09
retarded or whatever, David, They've never known a retarded child. The sweetest
15:18
and most angelic creatures on earth. Sorry, I mean a little choked up.
15:28
Kids do that to me. I know, I didn't grow up with
15:33
a lot of brothers and sisters. I know how nasty they can be.
15:37
And I've never had kids myself, So kids do that to me. Maybe
15:43
one day when I'm a dad, if God willing, maybe not be so
15:48
sentimental about children. But knowing my nature, I'll probably ten times worse.
15:54
My grandfather was, my great grandfather was, you know, and they were
15:58
strong men. It shouldn't be ashamed that kids can touch your heart that way.
16:08
It happened that while Apollos this is Acts nineteen. It happened that while
16:11
Apollos was at Corinth, Paul made his way overland as far as Ephesus,
16:18
where he found a number of disciples. When he asked, did you receive
16:22
the Holy Spirit when you became believers, they answered no, we were never
16:26
even told there was such a thing as the Holy Spirit. He asked that
16:30
how are you baptized? They replied with John's baptism. Paul said John's baptism
16:36
was a baptism of repentance, but he insisted that people should believe in the
16:41
one who was to come after him, namely Jesus. When they heard this,
16:44
they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus, and the moment
16:48
Paul laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came down on them, and
16:52
they began to speak with tongues into prophesy. Very important. It does not
16:56
say that Paul baptizing. It says after they were baptized, Paul laid hands
17:03
on them. He had taken an apostleate he had the authority given to the
17:10
Church by God to give them the fullest of the Holy Spirit. Belief.
17:15
Didn't give them that a simple baptism, the baptism of John, as they
17:22
say, the full baptism in the name of the Father's Son, the Holy
17:26
Spirit. That wasn't sufficient. Only confirmation in a Catholic Church will do it.
17:30
That's why the name of my book is Confirmation. By the way,
17:33
that's the single most important event of my life was when I was confirmed into
17:38
a Catholic Church. It changed me in ways that I hope I can explain
17:44
to you. Let me tell you the guy who just teared up over retarded
17:49
kids, I know there's a better word for them. I'm not trying to
17:52
be offensive. It's just guess what it was called when I was growing up.
17:56
You know, he wouldn't have teared up before it was earned into the
18:00
Catholic Church, No way, no way at all. I had some issues
18:08
in my childhood abusive father, and you know I was a pretty tough kind
18:15
of a juvenile delinquent, and that confirmation changed everything. So obviously, the
18:26
laying on or imposition of the hands of the apostles and those whom they granted
18:30
this authority had a special power to convey the fullness of the Holy Spirit beyond
18:37
baptism. The same power to bind and loose and ensures Apostolic succession gives every
18:44
Catholic priest in every corner of the globe the same power. Today, I
18:48
can assure you that no charismatic spiritual experience in a Protestant church, which I've
18:52
been in and witnessed. I know it's very emotional, but it can never
18:56
be as profound and powerful as the simple sacrament of confirmation in a Catholic Church.
19:04
Simply put, the sacrament of confirmation combined with baptism changes everything. The
19:11
Catholic Christian literally becomes a new man or woman. Of course, I only
19:18
hope at some point in my life God gives me the words to explain this
19:23
to our Protestant brothers and sisters, because it's beyond the words I have now,
19:29
it's beyond human words, and I just pray that they can all experience
19:34
that you can all experience that every single human being on the face of this
19:38
earth will be baptized and confirmed into a Catholic Church. But as profound and
19:45
as baptism and confirmation, though nothing is his life changing as the Eucharist.
19:52
Only the Catholic Church believes, teaches, and has the God given authority to
19:56
turn simple bread and wine into the spiritual body and blood of Jesus Christ.
20:03
Only a confirmed Catholic can actually eat and drink our Lord's body, blood,
20:08
soul, and divinity as he commanded. I will give all the Bible quotes
20:14
as we get into this, but Jesus said plainly that only those who eat
20:18
his body and blood have life in them, eternal life. Every time we
20:23
receive the euchris, it's not only real, but it's the very apex of
20:29
the human experience. Only a confirm Catholic in communion with the Catholic Church,
20:37
who is not in a state of mortal sin can receive the euchris. That's
20:41
also in keeping with the words of our Lord, who warned against receiving his
20:45
body and blood unworthily. Only a literal understanding of the real presence of God
20:51
in the euchris makes sense of this warning. Nothing merely symbolic could entail a
20:56
penalty. Reconciliation or confession is more common, as it's more commonly called,
21:02
you know, in popular culture, is essential for us. Even the euchres
21:04
all normal human sin, even saint sin, especially so many saints. I
21:11
love Saint Padre Pio, he was hot tempered. I love Saint Jerome for
21:17
instance. I mean these were real men with real flaws. You know,
21:22
only Jesus Christ and his mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, have not sinned.
21:27
We know this because the our changel gave real addressed. The Mother of
21:30
God is full of grace before she became pregnant with our Lord by the power
21:33
of the Holy Spirit. Grace is a favor granted by God, and grace
21:37
only entered the world for the rest of humanity through Jesus. Only Mary was
21:42
born and lived free from even original sin, so that grace could fill her
21:47
soul. Before Jesus came to forgive us our sins, original citizenherited. It's
21:52
the sin of Adam and Eve. All men and women except for the Blessed
21:56
Mother and Jesus have borne the stain of original sin, which is rebellion against
22:00
God and holiness. The Christian is forgiven of all sin when baptized, but
22:06
we'll continue to sin throughout life. I mean, we all know that'd be
22:07
true. Our Lord Jesus Christ granted to his apostles and their successors, who
22:14
are priests of the Catholic Church alone, his authority to forgive sins. The
22:18
Jews asked him, who can forgive sins? But God this was extremely reasonable
22:22
question. His ability to forgive sins was a greater sign of his divinity than
22:26
the power to heal. Yet Jesus said the most remarkable thing, He who
22:32
alone had the authority granted, gave men the power of God, as explained
22:36
in the Gospel of John chapter seventeen. In the evening of that same day,
22:41
the first day of the week, the doors were closed and the room
22:44
where the disciples were for fear of the Jews. Jesus came and stood among
22:48
them. He said to them, Peace be with you. And after saying
22:51
this, he showed them his hands in his side. The disciples were filled
22:53
with joy at seeing the Lord, and he said to them again, peace
22:56
be with you. As the Father sent me, so I am. After
23:02
saying this, he breathed on them and said, received the Holy Spirit.
23:04
If you forgive anyone's sins, they are forgiven. If you retain anyone's sins,
23:10
they are retained. If you believe the Bible, you have to believe
23:15
that Jesus gave normal men the power to forgive and retain sins. But that
23:23
was Pentecost, that was the birth of the Church. We celebrated last Sunday,
23:27
just a couple of days ago. But every Catholic priest, even if
23:33
he's a bad guy, if he was a simple man, he still has
23:37
the ability because he's not acting as himself. He's acting in the role given
23:41
to him by Christ. The priest's hands are Jesus hands when he turns bread
23:48
and wine into the body and blood of Christ. When the priest hears your
23:52
confessions, Jesus hears your confessions. When the priest says, your sins are
23:56
forgiven, I absolve you. Go in peace. Jesus is saying that to
24:00
you, and to doubt that is actually part of what is the sin against
24:08
the Holy Spirit. Jesus gave them the Holy Spirit, and he gave them
24:12
that power through the Holy Spirit. And it says in the Bible the one
24:17
unforgivable sin is the sin against the Holy Spirit. The Christian who will not
24:22
confess to a priest is sinning against the Holy Spirit. I need that to
24:30
sink in for all my probess and brothers and sisters. That is a sin
24:37
against the Holy Spirit. To deny what Jesus gave to his apostles and through
24:41
them, to the entire Catholic Church, and to the Catholic Church alone due
24:47
to Apostolic succession, the power to mind to lives. To deny that is
24:51
a sin against the Holy Spirit, and that is really dangerous. That is
24:57
really dangerous. The sac the annointing the sick. It's mentioned several times.
25:02
I've already referenced it in Bible passages, saying that even the shadow or handkerchief
25:06
of the apostles could heal people of all sickness. I'll simply include these quotes
25:11
below. The miracle of healing grant to the Catholic Church, continues to this
25:15
day. As Saint Hildegard von Benjin explained, She's sort of favorite saint of
25:18
mine, as she was a great herbalist. If it is God's will that
25:22
the person should recover, he will be healed. God does not will that
25:26
everyone should be healed. The soul is of more value than the body.
25:30
Often sickness leads us to repentance, conversion, and attachment from the world.
25:34
No one can be said to know the mind of God. Sometimes it is
25:37
his will that we must suffer, and we trust that He knows what is
25:41
best for us. But legendary miracles have been and continue to be performed in
25:45
such famous sites such as lords, and continue to happen every day in the
25:49
hands of even the most unimpressive priest. For the simple reason that he stands
25:55
in persona Christie or in the person of Christ. When priests and acts the
26:00
sacraments, it's the hands of Jesus. As I just said, ordination we
26:04
already discussed through the authority of apostolic succession, the power to bind and lusk
26:10
given to Saint Peter and the apostles by Jesus gave them the power to appoint
26:12
successors and to ordain priests. Only of validly ordained Catholic priests has the power
26:18
granted by Jesus to enact to enact the Sacraments exclusive to the Church. Ordination
26:26
ensures that any priests, no matter who may stand in persona ex Christie when
26:32
it ministering the sacraments, and only when a ministering the sacraments. Bad priests
26:37
are bad people, even when they enact the sacraments. It's not them Jesus.
26:44
You know, Jesus never guaranteed against evil or individual men. He ensured
26:51
a priest would do his will in the sacraments. A man may be defraud
26:55
or stripped of his authority to administer the sacraments and to teach or preach by
27:00
the Catholic Church. Such should be the case when a priest is found to
27:03
have fall into serious center heresy. I mean they should absolutely be defraud and
27:07
kicked out. A man may leave the priesthood if he feels he can no
27:11
longer accept the authority of the Church or fulfill the role as priest. You
27:14
know, occasionally a priest may fall in love and mary leave the priesthood.
27:18
That certainly happens. However, no priest retains the authority to administer the sacraments
27:26
and to teach or preach as a Catholic with authority if he rejects the authority
27:30
of the Church. Therefore, a while priests who or Catholic have converted to
27:34
Orthodox, Lutheran, Anglican, etc. Once they rejected the authority of the
27:40
pope, they lost all abilities to act as valid priests. While the founders
27:44
of the first Protestant denominations may have been validly ordained, their authority came only
27:49
through the apostles. When they rejected the apostles and their successors, they lost
27:55
the power God had given them. They cut themselves off from the body of
27:57
Christ and could no longer work as His hands. So tomorrow we will start
28:03
getting to what the Bible says about the sacraments. I'm gonna break this down
28:07
one at a time. We're gonna go through all the seven sacraments, and
28:10
I'm going to tell you what the Bible says. I'm gonna tell you what
28:11
the early church fathers say. It's probably you know, it's it's probably gonna
28:15
be about a settin part series, and I'll try to keep them short,
28:19
maybe a little shorter than the last series we did. And I may I
28:22
do them all like you know, contiguously. I may break here and here
28:26
and there with a podcast on politics and culture or something else sometimes, but
28:32
this is what we're going to be doing for the next you know, next
28:37
week or two. And I think you're going to find it really interesting whenever
28:41
a Protestants says, where does it say that in the Bible? Why do
28:44
Catholics think they have to go to confession? Why do Catholics think this what
28:48
you're gonna know? You're gonna have it, hopefully round on the tip of
28:51
your tongue. This is These are the things I get confronted with a lot
28:55
by well meaning Protestants, and I have to be ready to defend my faith.
29:00
And that's what my book's all about. It's actually the story of how
29:03
I got here and how I defend my faith. So if you're interested,
29:07
if you need a written copy and you know, or if you just want
29:10
to help me out, I would love that. You know, I'm an
29:14
author. I'll make my living writing. If you'd like to buy my book,
29:17
Confirmation and Autobiography of Faith, It's available on Amazon and print. Sorry,
29:22
Amazon's the only option for print on demand right now. Hopefully God Willing
29:26
will have another option soon. If you just want the e book, you
29:30
can go directly to me. You can go Jutsoncarell dot com or Southern Appalachian
29:33

29:40
and I just sent it straight to you and you got my EMAI address,
29:42
so you can chatman with me anytime you want to. But if you
29:45
want a hard copy, and if you want to give this book as a
29:47
gift to somebody, Amazon, yeah it's that's that's the only game in town
29:52
these days. But yeah, I think I give a pretty good defense of
30:00
the basics of the Catholic Church. Who we are, what we believe,
30:03
and why and why very much so? Why so again? And the words
30:10
of one of my favorite Saints, Saint Padripio. Pray, hope and don't
30:15
worry, and I'll talk to you tomorrow
