Questions asked:

  • Would it be logically possible for God to create a universe with multiple dimensions of time? What would such a universe be like, and how would we perceive it?
  • If a baptized person’s heart (or other organ) is transplanted into another non-baptized person does the organ from the baptized body transmit its baptismal graces to the new body?
  • Did our Lord’s death atone for persons from alternate realities?
  • Do Time Lords go to heaven?
  • Do Catholics believe in the presence of “marine spirits”? I watched a Protestant YouTube video on this subject. I never saw any exorcist even mention marine spirits in their discourse on exorcism.
  • A question came up on the Clerically Speaking podcast… Is there pooping in heaven? It appears eating is in heaven (after the resurrection) but is the waste of our meals due to the fall or will persist into eternity? Is that weird enough for you?
  • I don’t know if this was covered already: Does the Just War doctrine still apply in a Zombie Apocalypse? What kind of weapons, strategies, and tactics are justified in it?

Exodus 90 and the Exodus 90 challenge, which begins this year on January 20th. This isn’t just a 90-day program: Exodus 90 is a spirituality for men in modern times built on three ancient pillars: prayer, self-sacrifice, and fraternity. We all long for something more. And that something is to be found in becoming the men that God created us to be: sons of a loving Father. It’s time to turn away from our Idols. It’s time to break free from the Pharaohs that hold us in bondage. If you’re ready to make a fresh start, to break free, refocus, and rediscover who God is calling you to be in the new year and embark on a journey to Uncommon Freedom in Jesus Christ, then download the Exodus 90 app today.
