Summary
Patrick answers questions about changes in Catholic teaching on capital punishment and explains praying to saints with sharp scriptural references. He fields calls about family disputes over cremation and addresses the influence of Jordan Peterson on young Catholics, weaving in biblical perspectives on marriage and tradition. Rapid-fire yet thoughtful, Patrick’s responses bring clarity and conviction to a swirl of faith, culture, and personal struggle.

- Carmen (email) - How can I advise a young man to begin learning about Catholicism the right way or in hopes of correcting his mindset? (39:50)
