Questions Covered:

  • 03:19 – I don’t understand why different priests have different teachings — if it’s one Church shouldn’t there be one teaching? Also I don’t understand why the Church charges for weddings — shouldn’t it be free?
  • 17:32 – How do we know that the Early Church Fathers’ writings are correct?
  • 24:25 – How is the Eucharist truly propitiatory as stated in CCC 1367?
  • 48:15 – Why are Catholics held to a different standard? For example, for us it is a mortal sin if we miss Mass on a holy day.
