Patrick talks with listeners about the Covid vaccine and it's possible connections to healthy young people dying Susie - My dad was vaccine injured, and were so many other people that I know. It’s important that we look at the data Ralph - Advertisement money for Pfizer has an impact Rachel - What signs and wonders did Jesus mean and how do we interpret this? Rose – There is a magazine for nurses that says we should play down other medicinal treatments for covid and focus on the vaccine David - Science does not support that the vaccine is the cause of death of people with heart issues Tony - What did Jesus say that froze the Pharisees?

Tim – My friend worked at Moderna said vaccine was safe but apologized as it is not as safe as they thought Tom - COVID breeds cancel culture and also ties in with the transgender agenda with kids Caeser – Does the King James Bible have 80 books?

Joseph challenges Patrick’s explanation of the Church's teaching on sexual morality arguing that “it’s just a bunch of rules” and that “Jesus is above the rules.” He doesn’t understand why it’s immoral to experience sexual pleasure outside marital intimacy. Patrick engages him in an extended and thoughtful discussion that ends with Joe saying he appreciated the conversation. Patrick responds to an email from an elderly married woman who asks for more clarification about intimacy with her husband later in life Mary Lou - Can I go to a non-Catholic bible study? Tom - I used to not like NEEDING to follow the Church, but there are certain rules of nature, so I look at the Church being a natural rule. If it is not known that something is a mortal sin, is there is no sin because there’s no intention of sinning? Is it okay for a husband to help his wife “finish” before the completion of the marital act? Rhonda – Is it sacrilegious to name a child “Jesus?” Mary - Can my husband baptize our grandbaby?

Patrick recommends “The Bible and Birth Control” By Charles Provan Karen - How do we know that Mary was Assumed into heaven? Is there documentation on her assumption? Matt - A priest told me that Christ was not present in the Old Testament at all. Is that right? Tony - How does the bible reconcile with the Churches teaching that Jesus was born in December? Ben - My uncle married a woman who was already married. Am I sinning by calling her “Aunt?” Stacy - If the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost, how did he come when Jesus was baptized? Maria - A priest said that Jesus only did signs, NOT miracles. Is that accurate?

Dave - After the resurrection of the body will we be able to eat food or hug loved ones? David - Is it actually true that the orthodox also receive communion kneeling?
