#9409 Open Forum - Tim Staples

Callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief. 
Questions Covered:

04:27 – St. Irenaeus says that Eve and Mary, the New Eve, are both virgins. How can this be? 
16:58 – If you go to confession and the priest says, “I forgive you,” instead of the traditional absolution, is it valid? Are there any variations of the absolution that are valid? 
21:36 – Is there a licit, feasible means of rescuing frozen, abandoned embryos? 
44:43 – What is your opinion of the ESV Bible translation? 
46:43 – How can I prove to someone who is not a Catholic that the early Christians really were Catholics? 
52:37 – How can I better understand the Church’s teaching on “no salvation outside of the Catholic Church”?
