Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Earthquakes a Punishment from God?
Q: What does the church teach about universal salvation and hell?
Universalism is condemned; the church teaches that while we can hope for all to be saved, nothing guarantees that everyone will go to heaven, and hell remains a possibility for some.
Earthquakes a Punishment from God?
Q: If the Assumption falls on a Saturday, do I fulfill the obligation with the vigil Mass or the following Sunday Mass?
The vigil Mass counts for Sunday; the obligation on a Saturday or Monday is dispensed depending on local rules, but attending the vigil fulfills the Sunday obligation.
Earthquakes a Punishment from God?
Q: Is it appropriate and efficacious to attempt a spiritual communion while in a state of mortal sin?
There is no benefit to a person in mortal sin for spiritual communion; they should go to confession, though perfect contrition can replace the sacramental grace in an emergency.
Binding and Loosing
Q: What counts as a valid reception of a televised blessing?
Live broadcasts are preferable for blessings like the Pope's Urbe et Orbi blessing, but under certain circumstances, if one could not watch live through no fault of their own, receiving a blessing is still possible.
Binding and Loosing
Q: How does the Church view the relationship between the Last Supper and the crucifixion in terms of sacrifice?
They are one continuous act; the Last Supper inaugurates the sacrifice which is completed on Good Friday, and at every Mass the same sacrifice is made in an ongoing, non-duplicative way.
