Summary
Patrick answers questions about the soul after death, clarifies the Catholic teaching on the Assumption, and offers guidance for handling friendships with compassion and boundaries. He comments on breaking news from Iran, discusses thoughts about Prince and Tom Petty, and shares practical advice about taxes, indulgences, and trustworthy Bible apps for families.
- Mark (email) - If we can recognize each other when we are disembodied, does that mean we are actually instilled with some other supernatural "sense" upon death? (00:33)
- Manuel (email) - Regarding the emails (from the first hour), I understood that it’s not so much about the young man wanting to find the right young lady, it was more that you belittled women who have a sexual past, before marriage, through your comments. (04:19)
- Carmen (email) - Speaking of virginity being considered an abnormal and shunned way of living one's life… (06:15)
- Purple (email) - Since you believe that Jesus was assumed into heaven, can you please show me in the Bible where it says that "they all looked up and watched as Mary was taken up into heaven..." (07:48)
- Audio: Prince on the importance of playing the guitar (12:46)
- Dan - For people who don't want to pay taxes, just donate a bunch of money. If you donate $50,000, your taxes could be nearly paying zero. (14:05)
- The Assembly of Experts were all assembled in Qom to vote on the next ‘Supreme Leader’. And Israel just bombed them all. (18:39)
- Vivian - How can I forgive my friend who said very hurtful things to me. (20:30)
- Jose - You said that your dad was not a cussing person, and I know what he meant by that. (27:32)
- Elizabeth - Can we do something besides going to pilgrimage sites for the Jubilee Year of St. Francis? (30:00)
- Lauren (email) - I grew up Protestant and had an abortion when I was young and it absolutely weighs heavy on my heart especially as I’ve been going through my OCIA classes because I now realize I was putting myself before God, so it will be the very first thing I take to confession prior to my confirmation and first Eucharist. My question is, should I also tell my cradle Catholic spouse? (35:56)
- Jim - Is polygamy a sin? (38:55)
- Jen - Can you recommend a good Catholic Bible App for my teenage son? (40:51)

| 0:32.3 | he says i've always assumed that our soul when it becomes disembodied at death, loses access to all the bodily senses, and we are left with only what the soul provides. |
| 0:42.2 | So if we can recognize each other when we are disembodied, |
| 0:46.0 | does that mean that we are actually instilled with some other supernatural sense upon death? |
| 0:51.0 | I think the answer to that must be yes, because because as I discussed last week, the body and the |
| 0:56.9 | soul, for human beings at least, are made for each other. So our bodies are made for a soul, |
| 1:01.6 | and the souls are made for a body. But the difference is that whereas the body cannot survive |
| 1:09.8 | without the soul, the soul can survive without the body hence the afterlife |
| 1:15.3 | hence the phase of being disembodied spirits before we receive our bodies back again |
| 1:20.9 | both the good and the bad on the day of judgment the the the general judgment. So what is the supernatural sense that enables us to, quote, unquote, see and quote |
| 1:34.2 | unquote hear and quote unquote speak or converse? |
| 1:38.0 | I don't know. |
| 1:38.9 | St. Thomas has opinions on this issue in his treatise on the state of the soul after death. But I would summarize |
| 1:46.9 | it this way, that in a supernatural way, because at that point we will be pure spirits, but we will be |
| 1:54.1 | incomplete pure spirits, because our nature is to have a body, unlike the angels who are truly |
| 1:59.6 | pure spirits. |
| 2:05.7 | But that in an analogous manner, we will, quote-unquote, see, |
| 2:11.9 | but we won't have corporeal sense organs like eyes or ears. |
| 2:14.4 | There will be no inner ear. |
