<p><strong>Questions Covered:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>16:42 – I’m Orthodox and don’t believe that purgatory is a belief of the first century. What evidence do Catholics provide for it?</li>
<li>28:15 – Can I come up with my own mysteries of the rosary to meditate on?</li>
<li>34:44 – I feel the current criteria for mortal sin is not properly fleshed out to what they actually mean. How can one actually know what these 3 criteria actually constitute?</li>
<li>48:22 – The Filioque troubles me. How is it that a previous pope saw it problematic, yet a later pope included it?</li>
<li>52:47 – Can you clarify how there is salvation outside the Church?</li>
</ul>
