Callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief. 

Questions Covered:

15:43 - I am in dialogue with a devout Jew who said he has read the NT many times. He claims that every time the word “law” comes up in the NT, that they are referring to the Torah. He claims that Jesus and the apostles are just confirming Judaism and not starting a new religion. How can I respond? 

28:35 - Why don’t eastern Catholics say ‘filioque,’ and how can we use it if they don’t accept it? 

42:00 - My brother claims that the Old Testament is all about conquering lands and killing people, and that the New Testament is just covering it up. How can I refute this?
