<p><strong>Questions Covered:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>09:41 – Seems to me that Marian devotion is paganism, like it’s worship. It’s one of the reasons why I left the Church. How would you respond to that objection?</li>
<li>21:42 – It always bothered me that God gave Bathsheba an abortion — why would God do that?</li>
<li>29:32 – According to Vatican II a non-Catholic can be saved. That seems to contradict Jesus’ teaching that nobody comes to the Father except through him.</li>
<li>37:02 – Why do we have Holy Days of Obligation?</li>
<li>46:46 – After Peter died, would the new bishop or Rome have authority over the still living apostles, such as John?</li>
<li>50:52 – Is it better to think of works in terms of losing our salvation through mortal sins of omission?</li>
