0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Caffingances Live. I'm Sy Kelly, your host, got a great show for
0:19.6	you today. Both ours, Carlo Boussard, and we're going to talk about overcoming obstacles
0:24.3	to Catholic belief. If you've got some obstacle to becoming Catholic or to living out your Catholic
0:29.5	faith fully, this hour is for you, 888-318-7884. Maybe it's not you, but someone that you
0:36.2	know who has an obstacle that you'd like to help them overcome. Whatever the case, 888-318-7884,
0:45.5	Carlo has a brand new book out called The New Relativism, and that's in addition to, I don't
0:51.5	know, maybe five or six other books. He's a big time apologist, Carlo Boussard, welcome.
0:55.5	Oh, I'm saying welcome to Carlo, and we're still connecting with Carlo. All right. Again, 888-318-7884,
1:05.1	triple 8-318-7884. I was mentioning the New Relativism, so well, we're just waiting for that
1:12.2	connection. It's called Unmasking the Philosophy of Today's Woke Moralists. It's a very popular
1:17.3	book for good reason. We need to think through this kind of... How should we call it? I give
1:23.5	us a woke is the word. This idea now that we're constantly being told how to talk and what to
1:29.2	think and that we are maybe committing some kind of offense against others when we don't think
1:34.8	the way they do. Carlo says that's actually not a form of absolutism. It's just a disguised form
1:40.5	of relativism, and that's what the book is about. The New Relativism. You can get it at shop.catholic.com
1:46.2	right now. If you've got an obstacle you want to overcome towards Catholic belief, maybe you're
1:51.3	struggling. You can give us a call. Maybe there's a particular belief that's bugging you, and you
1:56.1	just like a little help with, hey, how do I deal with this? You know, I'm Catholic, because all of us
2:03.0	may have these struggles at some point, so it doesn't have to be that you've given up on the Catholic
2:07.1	faith. Just maybe there's some teaching of the church, some doctrine of the church where you go,
2:12.1	this is giving me trouble, and I'd like some help with it. Or maybe you're not Catholic at all,
2:18.2	and you're drawn to the church or are interested in the church, but there's something that stands
