Summary
On Hour 2 of today's show, Patrick talked about a variety of caller and listener questions including: Ross asked whether his children could participate as flower girl and ring-bearer in his goddaughter's wedding. Jeanine asked how Jesus could pray to God if He Himself is God, and one moral, questioning whether it is acceptable to reduce her work hours to care for her grandchildren in exchange for cash from her daughter. Chuck wrestled with whether he should join the Catholic Church if he does not agree with all of its teachings and practices. Finally, Chris expressed concern about an LGBT workshop being offered by a parish within his archdiocese and asked how he should respond.
- (00:28) Ross - My God daughter is baptized Catholic and getting married in a protestant church. Can my children participate in the wedding as flower girl and ringbearer?
- (4:49) Jeanine - About when Jesus went into the desert and prayed to God. If He is God, why is He praying to Himself? I cut my work hours at work to help take care of my grandkids for Cash from my daughter, is that morally okay since I don't need to pay taxes on that?
- (12:36) Chuck – Should I join the Catholic Church if I don’t agree with everything they do?

- (25:32) Email – Gail: Violent video games for children.
- Break 2
- (36:40) Kimberly - Had the Jewish people accepted Christ for who he was, we would we still be Jewish?
- (38:03) Chris - A parish within my archdiocese is offering an LGBT workshop what am I supposed to do?

| 0:30.6 | I had a question regarding my goddaughter. |
| 0:34.6 | She received her sacraments all the way through high school and is no longer |
| 0:39.8 | practicing, unfortunately. She's getting married outside of the church, but she's asked my |
| 0:48.6 | children who are younger to participate in the math as a flower girl and a ring bearer. And I'm |
| 0:59.9 | conflicted and I've gotten some conflicting spiritual guidance on that. I just wanted to get your take |
