Si Qua Virtus

In this episode of the Anything But Catholic Podcast, Host Christopher Laurence and Apologist David Cooke discuss the idea of future Church closures as a result of the COVID agenda, as well as take questions from listeners.

QUESTIONS ADDRESSED IN THIS EPISODE:

1) Why do you have statues and Icons? How is that not idolatry or the creation of Graven images? (Did Catholics re-order the Commandments to make this acceptable?

2) Why do you pray to the dead? What is the communion of Saints?

3) The early church fathers tend to interpret the Scriptures (especially the Old Testament) in ways that most Protestants would consider "eisegesis" based on their prioritization of the historical-grammatical method of exegesis. How would one respond to this charge, and is historical-grammatical exegesis the primary way in which Christians should be interpreting the Bible? Why or why not?

4) Discussion on God's existence and the "problem of evil".

RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

1) Article by Dr. Peter Kwansiewski at The Remnant on masks and Christian worship.

2) Article by Cathy Caridi at Canon Law Made Easy on if we can be required to wear masks at Mass.

3) YouTube channel Computing Forever, run by Dave Cullen, with many videos addressing the agendas at work today.

In this episode of the Anything But Catholic Podcast, Host Christopher Laurence and Apologist David Cooke discuss the history and reasons behind the Church's veneration of the Blessed Virgin Mary, as well as take listener questions.

Questions Discussed in this Episode:

1) What is the Eucharist? How is it different than communion or the Lord’s Supper in protestant churches?

2) Why do Catholics have extra books in their Bible?

3) Why can’t women be priests? Why are there not altar girls, traditionally?

4) Can you explain the objection to the Eucharist some Protestants derive from Leviticus 17:14? For example, in your call with Matt Slick he said that Leviticus 17:14 contradicts Transubstantiation, but you say it actually proves it.
