In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, I take up the intellectual challenges posed by Protestant thought, and take questions from both Protestant and Catholic callers.

Questions Covered:

  • 15:11 – What do you say to a Protestant who says there’s no difference between annulments and divorce?
  • 18:37 – I’m Catholic but I don’t believe in praying to Saints or to Mary. I think a lot of paganism has been brought into the Church. Can you still be a Catholic and not believe in these things?
  • 29:28 – I’ve read the bible and there isn’t anything on Purgatory. How can Catholics believe in it?
  • 35:41 – Is it true that when the Son of Man is capitalized it means Jesus? And if it does, how can you say that Jesus lets others forgive sins?
  • 44:10 – I heard a Calvinist say that the Marian dogmas developed after the rise of monasticism. Is this true?
  • 49:50 – What are the steps for a papal statement to be infallible?
