Wow

I'm glad you can serve two Gods. Never heard anything so hypocritical.

@@rbnmnt3341 please elaborate.

That's great, brother. My uncle was "double-dipped," too! 😂 I'm so glad you found your way back home. God bless.

So excited for you:) God Bless you on your journey.

May God be with your family.

Praying for you.

May God grant you true and deep healing. Welcome home brother!!! 💚💚💚

God bless you, man. I can relate through certain experiences I've had as a kid outside of the Church. I couldn't imagine how terrible it would be to have the two conflated. My heart goes out to you, brother. It truly does. You'll be in my prayers. All I can say now is - the past is dead, look to your immediate future. The Holy Spirit is with you, that's for sure. Embrace the Sacraments wholeheartedly, and let your inner-strength be a signal of hope for all who have suffered. I have complete faith in you, my brother.

Grace be to God for that, brother! It brings up an excellent point, too. Inviting even those of a more lackadaisical variety to *integrally participate* in the faith, with proper instruction, can often lead them to a much deeper spiritual life. How many of us have returned to the Church with an even deeper zeal after, let's say, a funeral? How many of us have been inspired by the fruits of the saints among us, or even those striving to be saints, as they live out their faith by their actions? Especially in a world where it's considered so unfashionable to immerse yourself in scripture (which is regrettably understandable to some degree, given the wretched hypocrisy of so many who preach it), those corporeal works of mercy do really go a long way. Burying the dead, feeding the poor, and living out the beatitudes are often far better communicators of the faith to the many prodigal sons in waiting than simply hollering at them and expecting a positive response. I'm so glad that you were entrusted by the parents with such a great responsibility, and in such a way that illuminated the fullness of that grace to which you were called! It's such a profound blessing.

Jesus was baptized by his friend/2nd cousin

Thank you Peter, that’s a great compliment that we really appreciate

Try UPS

Except infant baptism isn’t to find anywhere in the bible in the sense that it can have the same effect as getting baptised as an adult/adolescent

@@juliaz9843 implicitly it does. You just have to read your Bible and open it up fully in your heart and mind my sister.

Example, Jesus said to go out and make deciples of ALL NATIONS baptizing them in the name of the Father Son and Holy Spirit. Well, what makes up all nations? Only adults? Only men? Or women? I think a nation is made up of all men women and children. Of ages from conception to natural death of elderly people. That's just one example.

@@tillo1981 that’s cherry picking and not solidly proofing whether or not infant baptism actually is God’s will for us

@@juliaz9843 no, not cherry picking at all. Like I said, there are many other examples.

That would be a good epsiode!

Yes, and may be include the importance of Wreath prayer 🙏

I laughed way too hard at this. 😂

Thanks! I still want a bobblehead of St John Paul II and Mother Teresa...St Padre Pio may be too much...my Pastor says he is VERY powerful. Do you know how to get these? PTL!

Roman Catholics view organ and tissue donation as an act of charity and love, as reported in the Catholic publication Origins in 1994. Transplants are morally and ethically acceptable to the Vatican.

That's a great idea for an episode! In the meantime, I'll try to shed some light on this. First and foremost, you're right to draw a distinction between (1) being an organ donor and (2) donating one's body to science. Those are two very different scenarios. As an organ donor myself, I see absolutely no problem with that. There are those who require medical help, and you have the ability to allow your body to continue doing that beatific work on your behalf even after your death! That's an outstanding opportunity to (literally) give of yourself in order to help others, which is exactly what we're called by Christ to do. You wouldn't be prohibited from giving your brother a kidney while you're both still alive. You surely wouldn't be prohibited from doing so after you leave this earth! Donating your body to science is a bit more sketchy. Even with full assurance that your corpse wouldn't be used for unethical purposes, which is practically impossible to obtain given the widespread lack of biological ethics in the general sciences today, it's still not a very well-regulated industry. Yes, I did say "industry," because that's often how it's treated these days. There have been documented reports of unsavory characters exploiting the process for their own monetary gain in reprehensible ways. John Oliver did a whole episode about this. He's not always the most orthodox, to say the least, but his coverage on this particular topic is more thorough and rigorous than I could ever be here. If it could somehow be verified to fit a particularly ethical cause, certain cases might be acceptable to the Church, but it's not something I would ever chance. TL;DR Organ donation 👍 Body to science 👎

That's what I was wondering.

Simple, real Christians, Cathy It’s not about the content it’s about the intent. The Catholic Church has a complete different intent than the early Christians and hence leads Christians astray

Lol, Julia. I’m sure your Protestant non-denominational sect that was found in the last two hundred years discovered the true Christianity. 🙄

@@juliaz9843 Have you ever noticed that there's 1 Catholic Church, but thousands of Protestant churches?

@@cathybaker875 it’s simple: if you can’t explain or legitimise something solely with the bible it can’t be true. The bible even warns about it by calling it the whore of Babylon in revelation. But who am I to explain that to you? Ask God to show you the truth yourself! 🙂

@@juliaz9843 Hmmm... I'm at a loss as to what "it" is. Sorry. Not trying to be rude, but is English your first language? Do you mean legitimize and not legitimate?

Guess it didn't count, too bad

It does count.

@@szudy76 No, the intent of the parents has to be there. It doesn't matter what the grandparents do or think.

@Jose kutty Thank you for your prompt response, and for your guidance. God bless all of you. 🙏🇵🇷

@@joy69pr1 as the previous comment rightly stated, you don’t get baptised again. Instead, we go to confession. It’s not wrong to listen and to be informed of the beliefs of other denominations. However, we need to be cautious of what we “cheer” for since their convictions may not be aligned with the Catholic faith. If it were, they would be in communion with us but they aren’t for a reason.

@@carmelpereira6003 Thanks for the information. Much appreciated 🙏

Ephesians 4:5 one faith one Lord one baptism. So whether or not people realize. They are baptized Catholics 🙂 just saying 😎

If you were baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy spirit it is a valid baptism however parents should have held to their promises but I don’t believe it makes the baptism invalid

From what I understand from this video the child can be baptized if both parents agree and the godparent is Catholic. You can only perform the baptism of your grandchild if they are in grave dire need like the child is sick unto death. I pray your grandchild's parents have the desire for the baptism of the child.

@@eduardohoover2127 thank you

@@mikenedoma1363 have the parents agreed to baptism yet? I hope so. Two of my 5 grandchildren aren't baptized yet. My late wife baptized one of the two but was met harshly when she explained it to the priest that she hadn't the right. My wife tried to use autism as dire need but that is not dire and the child excels in school and is quite healthy last I heard. The pandemic has cutoff my tabs on the child unfortunately. Please pray for my two grandchildren as I pray for your grandchild. The Philip the Apostle pray for us.

Yes, of course. You might find only one name on the certificate as godparent though.

@@CatholicTalkShow thank you

I just recently looked this up too. Catholic Answers has a post about this on their website

@@lizholcomb7920 Thank you. I just when over there and look at some of their articles on the subject.

Yes, that was my question ⁉️ Is that a bobblehead of Fr Pagano😳

We all have other responsibilities. Podcasting isn’t our main job!

Matthew 28:18-20 read it sometime.

@@CatholicTalkShow uh judging by your response, you must not of read my post 🙄 why don’t you read the Bible in it’s entirety sometime? Jesus was talking to His disciples in Matthew 28 and they understood the assignment; they were NOT confused. Were they baptizing in the book of Matthew???????????????? No they weren’t but over in the book of Acts, they were actually doing the baptizing and they were baptizing in “Jesus” name. Acts is the birth of the Church, they obeyed Jesus’ commandments from Matthew 28:19 (a verse the Catholic Church CHANGED-but no mention of that from you huh) in Acts hence Acts 2:38! Point to me the scripture in the Bible where someone was actually baptized “Father, Son, & Holy Ghost.” This is something you Catholics started and you wonder why there was so many budding Protestant churches after y’all starting CHANGING scripture and making it doctrine. You’re not the first church as you claim because you strayed from scripture. You don’t reflect Acts. That should be a concern for you or maybe you’re okay with denying scripture just enforce your “religion.” 😒 Stop teaching the gospel if you’re not going to teach it accurately!

@@CatholicTalkShow it’s the nerve for me to act like your “formula” or misinterpretation of scripture trumps the actual word to God. 🤔

I wonder would he go to heaven or hell

Constantine himself was NOT a Christian due to the fact that he was baptized on his deathbed by an Arian bishop. So much for the Trinity!

That's where you'd be wrong, kiddo. www.catholic.com/tract/infant-baptism

@@CatholicTalkShow first of all I wouldn’t consider myself a kiddo being 23 years old 😅 and secondly, what’s the reason to baptise a child rather than wait for it to be become a little older and make the decision voluntarily? I know a little bit about the tradition of infant baptism and basically the church is meaning to deliver the child from demons by baptising it & I think that’s just absurd
