Callers:
- (34:44) - My friend is a hermit and took her vows and is in the process of having the blessed sacrament in her home. Is that allowed? AND in Genesis - God created the earth but it doesn't mention anything about other planets or the universe
- (39:23) - Usually I get a penance after confession but I went to a new priest this time and he didn't give me one. What should I do. Don't I need one?
- (41:03) - I was told at the Last Supper there were more people than just the 12. Is that true?
- AND does Jesus love some people more than others?
- (47:17) - Genesis 9:4-5 God told Noah not to eat the blood of the animal - the life of the animal - it seems like its not just a Jewish command. Why are Christians not following proper bleeding customs anymore?
