n this episode of The Patrick Madrid Show, Patrick takes on a curious question from Javier in San Antonio: Did Adam and Eve actually need to eat to stay alive before "the fall?"   Patrick breaks it down by saying that the Catholic Church doesn't have a solid, definite answer on this, so it's something we can speculate about. He mentions that St. Thomas Aquinas talked about this in his Summa Theologica. St. Aquinas seems to indicate that in the Garden of Eden, eating wasn't about survival—it was all about enjoyment.    Patrick goes on to explain that before "the fall", life was all about enjoying God's creation and following His command. No hard work, no stress—just pure bliss with everything they needed at their fingertips. Of course, after "the fall", everything changed, and life got a lot harder. Patrick assumes that because Adam and Eve had regular human bodies, they probably did all the normal human things—like eating and digesting food.   Patrick also suggests checking out Pope Benedict XVI's book, In the Beginning, if you're into looking deeper into the creation story. It's got some great insights on Genesis and how we fit into the big picture.   So, while we don't have a definite answer, it's pretty interesting to imagine how Adam and Eve lived in total harmony before things went south.

In this enlightening episode of Higher Density Living, hosts Jason Rigby and Alexander McCaig explore the profound thoughts of Thomas Aquinas, particularly his concept of creation as outlined in his magnum opus, Summa Theologica. The hosts dive deep into Question 45 of the first part, offering a fresh perspective on Aquinas' ideas and their relevance to modern discussions on cosmology, metaphysics, and the philosophy of religion.   Key Points Discussed:   Aquinas' Definition of Creation   Creation as "the emanation of all being from the universal cause, which is God" The concept of creation ex nihilo (from nothing) How this differs from modern Christian interpretations   The Nature of God in Aquinas' Philosophy   God as an infinite power rather than a personified being The gap between non-being and being as infinite, requiring infinite power to bridge   Creation and Natural Processes   How Aquinas distinguishes creation from other forms of causation The idea that natural processes work with existing matter rather than creating from nothing   The Concept of Co-creation   Aquinas' view on the emergence of new forms in nature as co-creation The hosts' interpretation of this concept in relation to human creativity and procreation   The Imprint of the Creator   Aquinas' argument that all created things bear a trace of the Trinity The hosts' modern interpretation of this concept, relating it to genetic code and the passing on of ideas   Critique of Modern Religious Interpretations   How Aquinas' views differ from contemporary religious dogma The hosts' perspective on the rigidity of modern religious institutions compared to Aquinas' more open approach   Relevance of Aquinas' Ideas Today   The continued importance of Aquinas' logical analysis and interdisciplinary approach How his ideas can contribute to contemporary philosophical and theological discussions   Throughout the episode, Jason and Alexander offer their own insights and interpretations, drawing parallels between Aquinas' ancient wisdom and modern scientific understanding. They emphasize the importance of open-minded exploration of these concepts and critique the rigidity often found in contemporary religious institutions.   The hosts conclude by highlighting the value of studying "heretical" thinkers like Aquinas, whose ideas challenge conventional wisdom and encourage deeper reflection on the nature of reality and our place within it.   This episode of Higher Density Living offers listeners a thought-provoking journey through ancient philosophy, encouraging a reevaluation of our understanding of creation, God, and the nature of existence itself.

In this episode we discuss the mystery of transubstantiation whereby the entire substance of the bread and wine becomes the entire substance of Christ's body and blood. Transubstantiation does not indicate any sort of local movement nor is it like any natural change (or "transformation") in our experience, therefore a new term was necessary to indicate this supernatural change. In addition to reading the catechism we also spend some time reading some excerpts from three articles in question 75 of the third part of the Summa Theologica. (ST. IIIa Q. 75 a. 2, a. 4, and a. 7)

In this episode we read the Catechism concerning the three mysteries of the Eucharist. The Catechism also gives considerable evidence from Scripture, the teaching of the Fathers and declarations from church councils concerning the truth that Christ's true body and blood are contained in this sacrament under the accidents of bread and wine. Additionally, we read several sections from the Summa Theologica concerning these matters. (ST. IIIa Q. 75. a. 1 and a. 5)

In this episode we read the Catechism's explanation concerning why Christ chose bread and wine for the matter for the sacrament of his body and blood. The Catechism also discusses not only the particular suitability of bread and wine- but also why the bread should be unleavened (in the Latin Rite) and why there should be water mingled with it. In addition we read several articles from the Summa Theologica concerning this same subject. (ST IIIa Q. 74, a.1-a.6)

In this episode we begin our study of the six effects of Baptism: The Remission of all sin, the remission of all punishment due to sin, and the grace of regeneration. The Catechism explains why even though sin and its punishment is remitted by Baptism, it does not free us from all miseries of this life. IN addition to reading the Catechism we also take a look at the first three articles of Question 69 in the third part of the Summa Theologica in which St Thomas treats of these first three effects of Baptism. (ST. IIIa Q. 69 a.1-a.3)
