Questions Covered:
05:25 – If we are not guilty for the sins of our father, then why are we guilty of “original sin”? Follow-up question: If Mary could be born without the stain of original sin then why can’t God afford us the same and let us all start off with a clean slate? Thank you Jimmy. 
13:03 – You may have dealt with this before: would aliens need baptism? 
15:02 – How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? 
16:53 – What was God’s plan if Adam and Eve did not sin?. What does Original Justice really mean? When we say Adam and Eve were not suppose to die, what death are we talking about? 
20:53 – Suppose someone was alone in the woods and knew he was transforming into a zombie (or a cordyceps zombie). And if his zombified self made it back to civilization, it could be a disaster for the species. Could it be morally licit for him to end his own life to prevent this? 
30:57 – Why is it that the Knox and Douay-Rheims Bible Old Testaments only feature 3rd and 4th Kings but not other translations of the Old Testament in other Catholic Bibles? 
34:33 – When someone is canonized as a saint, who decides what attributes will be associated with the images of that saint? St. Peter has his keys. St. Lucy has her eyes. If there is ever a Saint Jimmy, how will your attributes be identified? 
39:18 – Is there anything in tradition as to why Pilate only offers to release either Jesus or Barrabas and not the two thieves crucified next to Jesus? Could they have been gentiles? 
43:10 – When detectives do undercover work does that constitute lying and could it be considered consequentialism??
