Summary

Patrick clashes with the first caller in a heated debate over Catholic exclusivity, blessings, and whether Catholics truly know how to pray or seek spiritual help. Accusations fly as the caller insists that lay Catholics are left spiritually wanting and critiques the refusal to seek blessings from non-Catholic ministers, while Patrick defends the Church’s distinct practices and the special authority granted to priests, dismissing broad generalizations as untrue.

Patrick opens the hour with a very heated caller, Joseph, who claims Patick is promoting an exclusive Catholicism when it comes to blessings. (00:35)
Jodi - I disagree with Joseph. Confession is absolutely something that is so good for the soul. It prepares our soul for the end of life. (12:27)
Monica - No matter what parish I go to blessing has been easy for me. Joseph’s comment confuses me. At first this made me angry, but as the call continued, I felt like maybe he was hurting. (17:48)
Sean - What does Matthew 16:18 mean about Peter the Rock? How can I understand? (19:48)
Didier - I think it is a fallacy that Protestants are trying to convert Catholics. It's like saying people with other English accents don’t speak English. (29:36)
Email – Everyone in heaven is a Catholic
Richard – Did you say Catholics who leave the Church will not go to heaven? (37:29)
Katherine - Do we keep our memories in heaven? Will our entire earthly experience still be present to us? (44:19)
Barbara - We do have to be careful about Catholic chaplains being sidelined. US army recently cut down support systems that did affect Catholic chaplains. (47:41)
Nader - In order to get to heaven, we have to receive the sacraments. What if I don't have access to a priest? (50:00)

0:20.5	This is the last hour of the program today. It will go quickly. So if you've been thinking about calling, I would call now. Get you on the air with your comment or question. 88-914-9-149-49. 88-9-14-9-14-9-49. Let's go to Joseph in Mesa, Arizona. Good morning, Joseph. Good morning, Patrick. Praise the Lord.
0:40.3	I just had some thoughts in regards to promoting an exclusive Catholicism in regards to not
0:48.1	seeking blessings from those pastors and ministers outside of the Latin right.
0:56.2	Okay.
0:57.4	Even in confessional, well, the pre, you know, it's, for deliverance or
1:03.6	exorcism, it's only by permission of the bishop.
1:08.4	And Catholics have to beg for prayers. Even after Mass, where did they go for prayer?
1:16.6	Catholics don't know how to pray over people, or speak the word of God into them or deliver
1:23.1	people because it's exclusive, and I just don't think that's right.
1:28.3	Well, okay, I don't accept your premise, but if you don't think that's right, that's okay
1:32.9	with me. I'm not here to convince you to think that way, but when you make a blanket statement
1:40.8	that Catholics as a group don't know how to do this, that, or the other.
1:44.4	I mean, come on.
1:46.2	I'm not sure where you got that notion.
1:50.2	But in my experience, well, you can, Joseph, after I'm done responding, so if you don't mind,
1:58.4	I've been Catholic a long time, and I've seen countless Catholics do
2:02.7	exactly what you just described. So if you're painting with a blanket brush and saying
2:07.4	Catholics can't speak the Word of God or Catholics can't do that, I just reject that because
