Summary
Patrick fields a listener's concerns about the moral implications of brain death and the protocol surrounding organ harvesting. Through a careful and empathetic response, Patrick delves into the delicate balance between respecting the sanctity of life and the potential for meritorious organ donation. This segment offers a deep dive into a complex and important issue within the Catholic framework, providing insight and guidance for those grappling with the ethics of organ donation.
- Andrew (15-years-old) - We are going over the Old Testament at school. When God appeared to people, was it as God the Son?
- Christina - I didn't go to a wedding outside of the Catholic Church in our family. It allowed the other cousins to have conversations about this. Since than she has had her marriage blessed.
- Mike - If you get buried, there is an embalming process which destroys the body, so there doesn't seem to be a way to get buried without harming the body.
- Robert - I am a single dad and my teenage daughter is disobedient, disrespectful and seems lazy. What do I do as a single dad? (13:28)
- Pete - Regarding embalming bodies: I am a funeral director and when embalming bodies, it is mainly for disinfection not preservation.
- Madison - Can I go to a family members wedding who is getting married outside the Church? Priests tell me that I should attend, so I am divided.
- Claudia - Organ Donations: people who have bad burns need skin, so can I donate my skin for donations?
- Jane - I disagree with your take on why John the Baptist died. I think you weren't comparing Apples to Apples.

| 1:52.8 | there's one God and three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. So there is only one God by nature. |
| 1:59.8 | There are not, they're not three gods, but the one divine nature has, as the possessors of that nature, |
| 2:07.4 | three distinct persons, the Father who eternally generates the Son, |
