Summary
Patrick begins with Father James Brent’s encouragement to absorb and ponder Scripture deeply, then reflects on scientific studies about animal intelligence, particularly why apes never ask questions while even young children do which raises profound questions about the soul. Patrick brings in Chris Pratt’s outspoken faith and Marco Rubio’s deep assessment of the Catholic Church’s impact on American history, weaving together spiritual insight, real-life questions, and public witness in unexpected, sometimes even joyful bursts.

| 0:34.4 | to the degree that we really receive the Word of God. But we also need to digest the |
