The Patrick Madrid Show: July 31, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick wrestles with the rise of foul language in daily life, pulling in emails and thoughtful calls to weigh how movies and workplaces normalize swearing. Practical ideas like media filtering services and scriptural reflections tumble in, stirring lively back-and-forth about raising children and fostering respect. A sudden shift brings up deep questions about biblical history and the nature of God beyond time, all woven together in Patrick’s signature blend of candor and humor.

• Karen (email) - Is St John Henry Newman the same person as St John Newman? (00:28)
• Jane (email) - Do people swear more at work nowadays than they did decades ago? (01:37)
• James (email) - I sometimes hear other Catholics say that swearing is ok.  I refer them to Col 3:8. I also tell my children that he who curses lives a cursed life. (11:23)
• Nicki - On the topic of movies and language, we have a special program that allows us to take out bad language. (13:26)
• Todd - As a Catholic man, I ignore it when people take God's name in vain. During Lent, I gave up profanity and I had a great change in my life. (22:11)
• Gale - There is an app called VidAngel that removes cuss words and avoids sex scenes and nudity. (26:39)
• Nancy - How do we know that the Jews are the Chosen people? Also how do we know that God is out of time and space in relation to Purgatory? (29:11)
• Patrick shares more bible versus in response to God being outside of time (39:23)
• Mark - I agree and have trouble with bad language. Can it be good in story telling for adults? Mark Twain used the N word sometimes. (47:45)
