G'day, welcome to Points with Aquinas. My name is Matt Fraad. Hope you're doing well.

Hope you're lent his off to a good start. If you could sit down over a pint of beer or water,

whatever the case may be, given that it's the Great Fast, if you could sit down, the point is,

I guess the point I'm trying to make is just this.

If you could sit down over a pint of anything with Thomas Aquinas and ask him any one question,

what would it be? In today's episode, we are joined around the bar table by my good mate,

Goma, from Catching Foxes, to talk to Aquinas about, well, the difference between

heresy, apostasy and sysm. All right, and by the end of the episode, you'll be able to

differentiate them for all of your friends who'll think you're fantastic. Here we go.

Welcome back to Finds with Aquinas. This is the show where you and I pull up a

bar stall next to the angelic doctor to discuss theology and philosophy. Today was a really fun

episode. I contacted my good mate, Goma, from Catching Foxes, to discuss a whole host of issues.

Here are some of the things we talked about, virtue ethics and how that applies to people who are

struggling with habitual sin, especially pornography. We talked about heresy, apostasy and sysm.

We talked about the difference between material and formal heresy. We get into Ben Shapiro's

interview with Bishop Robert Barron and our opinion on that. We talked about why the

institutional church is often more tolerant of the James Martin, Father James Martin types,

instead of the Michael Boris types and everything in between. We just talked about a lot of stuff.

So that's it. And it was a super fun episode. So I really hope that you enjoy it. I hope you're

having a beautiful length. Thank you so much to everybody who listens to the show, who subscribes

to the show. Two things I want to tell you before we jump into today's episode. Number one,
