- 17:06 – Are there, as some people think, a race of folks who are inherently evil through their DNA because they are descendants of either Cain, the giants, or both?
- 28:53 – Why do you think Jesus instituted the Eucharist with bread and wine, instead of something like lamb meat (and blood?)?
- 32:57 – Is it theoretically possible for the saints to save ‘everyone’ through ‘time travel prayer’, so that hell ends up being empty?

- 48:49 – Is the “Angel of the Lord” in the Old Testament, Jesus?
- 52:02 – Opinion question: assuming human beings on Earth are the only intelligent life in creation, if a total extinction event were to occur, would you expect time in this reality to continue on (our sun eventually maturing into a Red Giant etc…) or would you expect the general physical resurrection to be triggered by the last human death?
