Questions of Faith - 2021-08-06

<p><strong>Questions of Faith - 2021-08-06</strong></p> <p>Mgr Tony Rogers and Fr Stefan Park of Clare Priory look at this week's questions: 1) How is the Orthodox Church different from the Catholic Church? 2) Some Christians from non-Catholic denominations think that we worship Our Lady. Or even if they accept that we ask her to intercede for us through prayer, they believe we are not allowed to as she's not alive. What can we say to that? 3) If a couple are unable to conceive, is their marriage relationship still licit? i.e. medical reasons, older in age. 4) Is it possible that we’ll have women priests one day? I’ve heard it’s not possible because the Church is the spouse of Christ and so this supposes that the one who stands in for Christ, the priest, is a man. Is this right? 5) Can people with learning difficulties become consecrated? 6) Moses never step foot in the promised land. Don’t you think God was being a bit harsh on Moses by only letting him see it? Wouldn’t it have been a good opportunity for God to show how forgiving he is? 7) We’re living through so much turmoil and the news is frequently full of floods, heatwaves and natural disasters – do you think we are in the end times? Or do you think God is just trying to wake us up?</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
