In this show we go BTS on the topic of ideology.

Yet whether we like it or not, almost every corner of our lives—from dissertation writing to channel surfing—brings us face to face with competing philosophies and world views, each claiming to tell us definitively what it means to be human. How can we know which one is right? And what difference does it make?

Questions Covered:

13:03 - How, as Catholics, are we to read the pagan philosophers? 

21:37 - How can we combat human constructed truths and relativism? 

32:12 - I have a 10-year-old daughter who is really questioning God. Is there a resource out there for her to answer some of her questions? She’s a big reader. 

36:15 - What is the difference between philosophy and metaphysics? 

46:00 - Earlier you said that the only alternative to Nietzsche was Thomas Aquinas. Nietzsche makes a lot of sense to me. I am Catholic, but why shouldn’t I believe him?

34:54 - Since the pandemic started, I have been very afraid. How can I deal with my fear? 

41:55 - I had a frustrating conversation with a person at the grocery store about faith on Saturday. I really lost my temper and I butchered what I wanted to say. Should I go back and apologize, or should I just move on? 

45:55 - I have bipolar disorder. In the last 6 months, I have felt like I don’t need my medication. My family wants me to go on it, but I feel like God doesn’t. What should I do?

03:45 - Do I get to keep my tattoos after the Last Judgement?

07:13 - Apart from Jesus’ Passion, would Jesus ever have gotten sick or hurt, or would Psalm 91, which Satan quotes, apply and he would be protected? Would He have allowed Himself, Mary or an Apostle to become sick or hurt?

30:10 - What do you think the spiritual state of a Time Lord is?

31:54 - Given that Divine Revelation has provided us knowledge of invisible beings called angels and demons, and given that the fall of Adam is what threw the entire universe into discord, and given that all rational creatures are necessarily disposed to worship of God through the Incarnation of Christ, what possible room could there be for the existence of an unknown, unreached race of intelligent beings on other planets not accounted for by Revelation?

39:28 - In what sense could it be said that unicorns (or dragons or trolls or Captain Picard) exist?

45:55 - A Jewish friend asks me this all the time: How could the wise men have seen the star in the east if they were east of Judea?

48:40 - If Raiders of the Lost Ark was written to have Indy and his girlfriend open the Ark instead of the Germans would they have died in the same way the Germans did or no since they didn’t have any evil intentions with the Ark itself?

50:33 - I would love to hear a layman’s explanation of the immutability of God—how God is unchanging and exactly what that means for a personal God who watches over us changeable beings.

On this week's show, Father Edwin Leahy, O.S.B. schools us about the compelling new Quibi short-form series Benedict Men.

 

About Father Edwin Leahy, O.S.B.:

 

FATHER EDWIN D. LEAHY, O.S.B., became the 23rd Headmaster of Saint Benedict's Preparatory School in 1972. St. Benedict's has now grown to 747 young men, most from African American and Hispanic backgrounds, and 51 faculty members. 98% of the school’s graduates go on to college, with the most academically talented attending such colleges as Brown, Columbia, Dartmouth, Georgetown, Holy Cross, Harvard, Notre Dame, NYU, Penn and Rutgers. Today, St. Benedict’s Prep includes a counseling center--a comprehensive mental health services department. The department is at the forefront of applied school psychology and is a resource virtually nonexistent in other urban school settings, an achievement which was featured in the documentary "The Rule" by Marylou and Jerome Bongiorno.  During Father Edwin’s tenure focused therapy groups were established for the St. Benedict's students, including Alateen for students with a loved one who abuses drugs or alcohol, and Unknown Sons for students who do not have relationships with, or knowledge of their fathers. In 2005 the Velvet Rope program was established in the Leahy House, which helps resident students deal with a variety of socio-emotional issues that impact their learning.

 

About Benedict Men:

 

Executive produced by Stephen Curry, Benedict Men is a documentary series that chronicles life at St. Benedict’s Preparatory School in Newark, N.J., an all-boys school founded on one core belief: "Whatever hurts my brother, hurts me.”  The series follows the school’s nationally ranked basketball team as they learn the meaning of brotherhood through academic excellence and sport.  Their value does not lie in the number of points they score, but rather what they accomplish together as a team.
