03:33 – What are your thoughts on determinism and free will, can they be combined?7:20 – How does God know he’s not a brain in a vat?08:14 – My 5-year-old asked “Did Jesus’ death on the cross make God the Father sad?”12:44 – Where does the idea of “the rapture” come from? I’ve heard that it isn’t actually biblical, but pop culture and many Protestants would claim otherwise.19:30 – I am a later in life convert and I did not baptize my two now young adult children as infants. Is it possible to conditionally baptize them due to their other parent preventing their baptisms? The situation they are in is not typical I gave birth to them within a same sex marriage prior to conversion and then I was radically converted. The same sex marriage ended 10 years ago I am now married to a man in the Catholic Church. Neither of the children desire to attend Catechism classes and my son is 17 and my daughter is 20. I pray a Novena daily for Baptism for them to occur. It’s the Saint Therese of Lisieux Novena asking for her prayers for my children. Thank you Jimmy and God bless you.21:47 – Hello Jimmy, i am Catholic from Africa how can I help people around me who refuse to be Christian or Catholic saying it is because it is an invention to keep Africa poor calling it « the white man’s religion »28:40 – Hi Jimmy, someone had asked if there would be bacteria in Heaven and you said it’s possible if God allows us to eat and Heaven is like a big banquet with the saints. So if we eat in Heaven does that mean there’s death in Heaven since things would have to die for us to eat it?36:44 – What would the Church do to celebrate the Eucharist in the event of a blight that killed all wheat on the planet?42:41 – How should Christians understand these words of Jesus: “For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke of a letter shall pass from the Law, until all is accomplished! Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” Doesn’t this mean the Law of Moses still applies to Christians?46:30 – In a previous AMA, you said in response to someone’s question that if a person were assimilated by the Borg, the state of their soul adjacent to confession would remain unchanged. If someone were assimilated, could they conceivably receive anointing of the sick?47:55 – To what extent can a priest alter the words of the mass? For example, a priest at a chapel I go to says “This is Jesus, the Lamb of God” instead of “Behold the Lamb of God”, which I think is quite beautiful, but I am unsure if it’s correct.49:17 – Doesn’t the act of naming someone a pope fit the definition of a sacrament? It’s 1-a rite 2-Instituted by Jesus (Matthew 16) 3-to convey grace (infallibility)52:59 – Are orthodox bishops and old catholic bishops and sedevacantist bishops real bishops?
