• What should we be keeping in mind as we approach Passiontide?
• What are Father's thoughts on the new Cabrini movie?
• Why do traditional Catholics seem to dress differently for weekday mass compared to Sunday mass - is there a difference?
• Someone referenced Mark 16:17 to promote lay-people laying hands on others for healing, basically saying Jesus said anyone who believes will do these things. I have heard that lay people laying hands on each other is dangerous, so what is a counter-argument for this?
• How does the church feel about the use of CBD oil for medicinal purposes?
• I was baptized at an orthodox church as a kid. Should I ask for a new baptism?
• Are there different fasting rules on Good Friday than other Fridays in Lent?
• I read that there were no rubrics for the Mass until the Novus Ordo. Is that true? I had never heard of it before.
• How would the church view a man and a woman living together outside of marriage for the sole purpose of retaining their disability benefits?
• If someone commits a venial sin to stop a grave sin, is the venial sin still a sin, or is the venial sin forgiven under the circumstance? Example: If someone lies to stop a murder, would the lie be forgiven because it prevented a more serious sin?
• Conflicting language in scripture regarding the story of the three kings - East vs. West
• Does the FSSP have a stance on concelebration?
• Why is the Confraternity of St. Peter prayer worded the way it is?
• Why do some Masses during Lent have a Tract and others don't?
• Where are the Sisters (Nuns)? I see the Priest and Deacon and even Pastor. When we go to Church, where are they and what part do they play in the Church? They seem hidden somewhere. What is their purpose?
• How many hours per week would St. Joseph have worked? Do we know?
