Summary
Patrick discusses the timeless power of prayer, confront controversial educational content, and explore the difficulties of religious conversations. He tackles hard-hitting issues like heresy, religious prejudice, and evaluating classroom influences on our children's innocence. Patrick empowers parents to be vigilant and proactive in their children's education, and helps unfold the rich traditions of our Catholic faith.
- At a hearing in NH, State Rep Glenn Cordelli attempted to read from inappropriate books in school libraries. He gets shut down because it’s too graphic. The Democrats freak out and then all vote to not let him continue speaking. Too graphic for a room of adults representing citizens but totally cool for middle schoolers! Video and audio from Libs of TikTok.
- Jim - I have noticed a lot of catholic prejudice. The KKK hated Catholics and other groups hated Catholics too.
- Karina (15-years-old) - What is the Churches stance on us being able to sin in our thoughts? (16:05)
- Matt - I am a public school teacher and I recently removed a book that was offensive. There are people fighting the good fight.
- Homer - There is a famous black protestant minister who goes around to school boards and reads bad things from books to kids.
- Sig - How did the tradition of saying the 'Hail Mary' 'Our Father' and 'Glory Be' together come to be? Also, since it has been a while since the protestant protest, why don't Catholics start calling them heretics? (24:57)
- Emmanuel - How do I explain to someone why we pray for people in purgatory in regards to the Good Thief? Did he go to purgatory?
- Alice - The books in the class room are also coming through online digital learning.

| 0:18.9 | Welcome back. |
| 0:20.5 | Parents, if you have kids in school, maybe public school, and you're concerned |
| 0:26.8 | about the kind of books that are in the library. I know there's a big furor over this, a big |
| 0:31.7 | controversy over this. And it ebbs and flows, but in some places, there's some, like, really bad, corrosively immoral books that are available for the kids in public high school libraries. |
| 0:45.5 | So I have a little audio for you, and this is, Ceres, help me set this up. |
| 0:50.7 | I don't remember the name of the gentleman that we're going to be hearing from, but he's in... |
| 0:54.3 | This is the... It's a school board hearing, isn't it? New Hampshire State Representative Glenn Cordelli, and he's attempting to read from an inappropriate book that is in their middle schools. |
| 1:05.5 | Yeah. Thank you, Cyrus. And what's so insane about this is that the adults who are running this hearing do not want him to read what they do want to be. |
| 1:22.5 | Let me put it this way. |
| 1:23.8 | They don't want him to read from this book that they are defending, keeping in the library for |
| 1:29.3 | six, seventh, eighth graders. So they want this book, and other books like it, to be available to kids, |
| 1:37.2 | but they won't tolerate him reading from the book. It's too graphic. Yeah, it is. Actually, it's not as bad as some of the ones I've heard. |
| 1:45.7 | This is like rather tame by comparison. So we've edited out those bits, right, Cyrus? |
| 1:50.7 | I have. So what usually on the show, we play audio as it stands. We don't edit stuff out. |
| 1:56.7 | This particular one, I have brought the audio down where he is reading from the books, |
| 2:01.6 | and that'll give you an opportunity to describe what he's reading in a more... |
