Hello and welcome to Catacanth's Live. I'm Sy Kelly at your host. Thanks for being here with us on this Tuesday afternoon or maybe where you are. It's Tuesday evening or it might even be Wednesday morning if you're on the other side of the date line wherever you are. We're glad you're here.

Sure means a lot to us and we got two great guests for you today. Second hour Carla will be here with us Carla restart first hour Tim Staples and it's open form you can call and ask whatever you like 888-318-788-488-318-788-4 Tim Staples.

I'm going to say the best received book on Mary in recent years. Behold your mother. Hello Tim. Hello Sy Kelly. It is great to be with you. It is very very good to be with you.

I am feeling chipper. Are you really you're feeling chipper? I like that word. Chipper. You've gone all the way to chipper. I want to tell you something while we're screening calls here that happened today and I don't know I'm having feelings about it and I thought I'm going to tell Tim this and see if he has any feelings about this.

A bunch of 20 somethings here in the office. We were talking to them today Chris check and I and you were talking to them we're talking to 20 somethings and the name Charlie Chaplin came up. They don't know who Charlie Chaplin is.

That's painful. Is that something they don't know who Charlie Chaplin the genius Charlie Chaplin at one time the most famous man in the world.

And they were like I think maybe I've heard of them and but it's weird because I was thinking well Charlie Chaplin's film career actually started more than a century ago now more than a hundred years. Sure.

So I guess no there's no reason why they should know but boy is that make you feel old it does they don't know who Charlie Chaplin I was watching Johnny Carson the other day. Wait no Tim I have some bad news for you about Johnny Carson.

No he's a lot of people think he died but I have him I watch him I have him right in my living room okay no but and I forget the name of the child actor that he had on as a guest this little guy you know he was like six years old.

And so he started asking do you know who Fred Astero's oh yeah no. Do you know Gene Kelly is no how about John Travolta no. He said Mickey Mouse.

Yes I knew that guy well that's there is Mickey Mouse his career is more than a hundred years old maybe maybe less than a hundred years old mid the mid 20s I think Mickey Mouse started.

But but Charlie Chaplin just wouldn't be I don't know why it just like it made you well it blows me away when they don't know who Fred Astero is yeah you know and Gene Kelly and those I mean those same sometimes even 20 somethings now.

They don't know will not know who Fred Astero is now that reaches the level of sin yeah but then there are people that I have no idea who they are and they must be important because they're on the cover of people magazine.

Because I that's true I saw that a whole people magazine dedicated to this one person who I had not heard of and so I asked one of my 20 something children who who is Harry Styles and apparently Harry Styles is a big deal like I should know who he is.

Right but I had no clue I was like well I know who Charlie Chaplin is and I stormed off well I don't know who Harry Styles is well he's very important is a very important person okay I'm because he's a singer and uh he's just a very important person just trust me on this Tim.

888318784 is the number I knew I could I could tell you the Charlie Chaplin thing and you would be shocked because um you really just kind of it's I don't know I guess time passes huh.

I'm ready to go to calls you ready to go to calls let's do it all right uh doggle I'm gonna go with doggle as a pronunciation here in Tampa Florida listening on the Catholic answers live app doggle thanks for downloading the app onto your phone did I get your name correct.

Yeah you got it correct though I'm very happy about that go ahead with your question for Tim staples.

Hey Tim so my question is um my wife and I are expecting a baby and um and you have a question about that it's possible no girl has the answer is girl.

Yes all right I'm sorry um so so it actually it is a girl um so when she receives communion is it possible that the baby receives grace from God as well or is that just more than likely not the case.

Right before baptism yeah yeah yeah well some people argue you know baptism of desire or something like that comes into play here but I would argue not because in order for baptism of desire to come into play the person has to have a desire for baptism so that technically would not be what comes into play here.

However if we want to sort of widen our horizons here of defining what baptism of desire is what you have to understand is that the baby is entirely dependent upon his parents for grace and that's true after he's born.
