0:00.0	Welcome back to CATHYCANCE's Live. I'm Sy. Kelly at your host delighted to get to spend
0:20.5	another hour with you. Thank you for spending the hour with us. Carlos back and we'll
0:24.5	continue with the discussion we were having. You can call and ask about any obstacle you've
0:29.6	got facing you as far as the full practice of the Catholic faith. Is there something about
0:33.9	the Catholic faith that is just sticking in the car? It doesn't make sense or you can't
0:39.0	get past it. We've had wonderful calls on marriage issues. We've had great calls on
0:44.8	Mary on Pope Francis and is there an obstacle that you'd like to talk with Carlo about? Sometimes
0:51.2	it's very helpful and you can work through them and sometimes these obstacles seem like
0:54.9	they cannot be overcome. But some conversation and they become more manageable and maybe
0:59.5	can be overcome. So we'd love to talk with you whether you're Catholic or not. Maybe
1:03.8	you're not a Catholic and you just look at the Catholic church and go, how can they
1:07.9	believe this? And that could be anything from belief in God all the way to the very specific
1:13.1	beliefs of a particular Mary and doctrine or the doctrine of purgatory or something like
1:17.7	that. Or maybe you're a Catholic and you say to yourself, you know, I am a Catholic but
1:22.5	this one bugs me and I need some help getting past my struggle with it. 888-318-7884
1:30.4	Carlo, thanks for coming back. Side, thanks for having me back. I really enjoyed that
1:33.6	first hour. Yeah, it was great. Nice mix of different calls.
1:36.6	Indeed. I had some good conversations. So looking forward to some more for the second
1:40.5	hour here. Well, let's do it. We'll go to Lucy and Nebraska to start and if you're listening
1:44.7	in Nebraska, like Lucy, you're probably listening on Spirit Catholic Radio. Lucy, we're glad
1:49.2	you're here. What obstacle have you got for Carlo? Well, I'm a young Catholic and I've
1:55.4	really struggled with kind of worship in a Catholic church. I went to Stubinville last
