Summary

Questions Covered: 02:25 – How many languages was the bible translated into around the year 500 AD? I find polemical stuff all around the internet that is trying to put down the Catholic Church by saying it was translated into 500 languages by then. 06:23 – What is the Church’s view on suffering well when the person doesn’t really know what that means? My 8 y.o. daughter has been diagnosed with cancer. We as her parents offer up her suffering but how does the Lord view hers? 15:44 – Follow up question to Julian. Can you please give some clarification that we can go directly to Jesus rather than always through a mediator? 30:57 – If a husband and wife become one flesh in marriage and both die and end up in purgatory, do they first both need to be purged of their sin in order to go to heaven? 34:35 – I understand the concept of indulgences that if we do good works or pious actions it will reduce temporal punishment in purgatory. It seems like we’re just doing indulgences to check a box. Are the indulgences in these big books real and what is their full purpose? 41:36 – Follow up to previous question – You said, “If you have a gun license, you’ve been deputized by the state to carry out capital punishment.” Can you give some more clarification on that statement? 47:27 – How do we reconcile the different factions and the division they cause within the Catholic Church, especially in the US? 52:09 – How do I explain the papacy to my Protestant friend? …

0:00.0	Welcome back to Catholic Enchors Live. I am not site-kill it. I am Edgar Luhano, filling in
0:21.1	Forsythe, the podcast producer here at Catholic Enchors and call screener on most days. So if
0:27.3	you're interested in asking Carlo a question in the second hour, we have open forum. You can give
0:32.6	us a call at 888-318-7884. That's triple-831-truth. Carlo, would you say a slew of books or a stack of
0:44.2	books? What are you? Let's just say we've got five books. Five books. What would be a slew? I don't
0:49.8	know the term. I have no idea. We could say five. Why not? So you have a slew of books and including
0:54.7	the newest one, the new relativism and masking the philosophy of today's woke moralist. You can
1:01.0	grab a copy of it today actually shop.catholic.com and if you use a promo code woke, you can say 20% off
1:07.9	on the book. So on the ebook or both versions actually. Awesome. So yeah, so in one way the word
1:15.0	woke here can get you something good in the world. Hey, there's like a point out in the book of all
1:20.8	these more modern moral imperatives. There's always an appropriate interpretation of the terminology
1:27.6	or the verbiage that's being used. It's the modern spin that's problematic. You know, it's interesting.
1:32.5	Words constantly change. Yeah. And that's one word where I remember hearing that word about 10
1:38.8	years ago and it was there had some very positive connotations of you see the world in a very clear
1:44.8	light. Now it's taking a completely like I would argue. It's good to be awakened to the insanity
1:52.8	of our modern culture and to be awakened to saying right thinking. Absolutely. So it's just a
1:59.6	matter of how you're going to use the term there. Exactly. All right, great. All right, Karlo,
2:03.6	let's go ahead and go back to the calls. Let's start off with Ed in Melbourne, Florida listening
2:09.4	on 520 AM. Ed, go ahead with your question. Hello, can you hear me?
2:17.0	Loud and clear. Ed, go right ahead of the question. Oh, okay. Yeah, I got this connect. I had to
2:21.7	call back. I wasn't sure if I was going to be online. Okay, thank you for taking my call.
2:26.3	Hello, Karlo. And my question is one, I'm just looking for a factual historical data point.
