Michael Lofton covers a very common Catholic apologetic argument and shows why it is no longer sufficient in debates with non-Catholics. He then covers why the Apostle Paul forbade anyone to judge another on fasting and yet the Church commands days of fasting. Lastly, Michael goes over a commenter who unknowingly promotes Nestorianism.

Patrick Madrid explains the idea of infinite regression: basically, the concept of an endless chain of causes, and how it points to the existence of God. The Train Analogy: Imagine you're sitting at a train crossing, waiting for the world's longest train to pass. Car after car zooms by. Each train car is being pulled by the one in front of it, but NONE of these cars are moving under their own power. What gives? Somewhere way up front, there HAS to be a locomotive: the unmoved mover... pulling the whole train. Without it, the entire line of train cars would be stuck. The same principle applies to the universe: you can’t have an endless line of “movers” (or causes) without something at the very beginning giving everything its first push. And that is God. Infinite regression (the idea of “it just goes back forever, no big deal”) is, as Patrick puts it, a logical impossibility. It’s like claiming the train just goes on forever without an engine. Nope. Not happening. The Paintbrush Analogy: This one’s for the art fans! Imagine a paintbrush painting a canvas. The brush creates beautiful strokes, but it’s only moving because someone: a painter... is guiding it. Now, what if the brush is part of a longer stick? Let’s say it’s a foot long… or 20 feet… or as long as a football field. What if the stick just keeps going forever without a painter? That’s absurd. The same goes for creation: if there’s no “painter” (God) behind the brush (creation), then the painting (the universe) can’t exist. God is the ultimate painter, the one who gives creation its existence and beauty. What About Infinite Regression? Patrick explains that atheists, like Richard Dawkins, often try to argue for some other explanation: like “dark matter” or even, hilariously, aliens seeding life on Earth. But here’s the problem: all of these “answers” just kick the can down the road. Where did the dark matter come from? Who created the aliens? It’s begging the question, a fancy philosophical term that means dodging the real issue by postponing it. If you keep asking “what caused THAT?” at some point, you must land on an uncaused cause: something (or someone) that exists without needing a cause. That’s God. Simple as that. The Five Ways to Prove God Exists: Patrick gives a shoutout to Aristotle and St. Thomas Aquinas, who developed five logical ways to explain God’s existence. They’re not “scientific proof” like you’d see in a lab, but they’re rock-solid philosophical arguments. These “Five Ways” look at things like cause and effect, motion, contingency, and design in the universe: all of which point to a necessary first cause: God. He recommends Peter Kreeft’s "Handbook of Catholic Apologetics" (co-authored with Fr. Ron Tacelli) as a go-to resource. If you want to strengthen your faith, it’s must-read. Final Thoughts: Whether it’s the train, the paintbrush, or Aquinas’ Five Ways, these are tools to help us understand why belief in God isn’t just reasonable: it’s the only explanation that makes sense. So, the next time someone says, “But what caused God?” just smile and remind them: God is the engine, not another train car.

Patrick discusses an email regarding what is a valid and invalid marriage and the importance of getting married in the Church as a Catholic and getting your marriage blessed. He educates the audience about the existence of God and infinite regression. And takes a couple calls regarding his writings from Envoy Magazine and Surprised by Truth. Gail asks a question about Sedevacantists and Society of St. Pius X and their differences (1:13) Miles asks a question about exorcists (3:49) Chris asks a question about a valid marriage and getting married in the Church. (6:31) Tim is studying for the diaconate and wants to know about infinite regression and the existence of God (19:52) Pat asks if it’s a mortal sin by not keeping the one hour fast for communion (35:18) James asks about his book “Surprised by Truth” and the difference between the red cover and purple cover (41:00) Randall asks who would be the J.R.R. Tolkien of our day (43:14) Aaron wants proof that the Catholic Church was founded by Christ (47:58) Book Recommendations this hour: Surprised by Truth: https://tanbooks.com/products/books/surprised-by-truth-11-converts-give-the-biblical-and-historical-reasons-for-becoming-catholic/?srsltid=AfmBOoopB3AGVqSKU-nn5tzb-5RCmJWvK9tiW_J_jxU7VYmHa1o1iNDA Handbook of Catholic Apologetics: https://ignatius.com/handbook-of-catholic-apologetics-hcatap/

Patrick presents a heartfelt discussion focused on the widespread issue of loneliness in our society. Joining him is Glen, a Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus, who suggests combating isolation through community involvement. Mary Lou also contributes an inspiring perspective on finding fulfillment and purpose, whether single or married, through faith and self-acceptance. Patrick explores practical advice, spiritual encouragement, and community solutions to help those feeling lost and disconnected. He also addresses the deeper emotional challenges many face and highlights the importance of seeking professional help when needed. Susan (email) – Living a Catholic life is the surest way to Heaven (00:40) Jacqueline - Theresa of Avila speaks about wanting to go with Our Lord. It's ok to be sad and suffer because it’s all part of the trial of life. (03:27) Rachel - I wanted to encourage David. His sadness comes from thinking God can't use him. (06:22) Roger - Have you heard of the Order of the Templars? Was Christopher Columbus a member of Templar Knights? (08:21) Mary Anne - I was just fired because I caught my boss being dishonest. It hard as a Catholic to stand up for what is right. (15:23) Glen – We have an epidemic of loneliness. I am a leader of The Knights of Columbus in MA. We exist for men like him. (22:12) Chris - Is it better to be meek and humble when seeing wrongdoing or do we need to be bold? (24:22) Maribel - What do you think the difference between clinical depression and being depressed is? (31:29) Patrick recommends “A Thousand Frightening Fantasies: Understanding and Healing Scrupulosity and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder” by William Van Ornum Eileen (10-years-old) - Why do we pray for people who have already died? Why can’t my 7-year-old brother watch PG-13 movies? (38:58) Karen – I’m trying to convince my husband that Jesus exists. Can you help me provide evidence? Patrick recommends “A Handbook of Catholic Apologetics” (44:46) Mary Lou - Encouraging David: The Little Way of St. Therese has helped me navigate depression and loneliness. (46:21)

Patrick delves into how American patriotism and Protestant defiance of authority might find common ground, unpacking historical contexts and biblical teachings. He explores the intriguing tension between rejecting and establishing authority, and how it applies to our faith.

What can I give her to help her come back to the faith? Jim - Do you think that Martin Luther had a part to play in the Church reforming some of their abusive practices that were happening in his time? (09:47) Teresa - My daughter has cut off me because I am not 'open minded' enough for her. Should we send her a birthday card even though she has told us to not contact her? (13:36) Rita - My grandson just met a girl and he has a big heart. Her and her daughter want to move in with him because she needs a place to live. How can we talk with him that it is a bad idea?
