WOF 206: Listener Q&A w/ Bishop Barron

The Word on Fire Show - Catholic Faith and Culture

This week, Bishop Barron answers questions from listeners all over the world. These include:

• If animals have distinct personalities, then why does the Church teach they don’t have souls?
• What is being conveyed by identifying Jesus as the New Adam and Mary as the New Eve?
• Do you believe we have a predestined “purpose”?
• What can we say about the love of God to someone who has lost an infant to disease, or a parent to suicide?
• If evil is a privation of good (non-being), how can demons be pure non-being?
• Why do some people say, after they die, they wish to see God “face to face”? What does this mean?
• Does the Incarnation bring about the fulfillment of nature, or is Jesus’ divinity something supernaturally added to an already-complete human nature?

If you have a question, be sure to send it in via AskBishopBarron.com.
