The callers choose the topics during Open Forum, peppering our guests with questions on every aspect of Catholic life and faith, the moral life, and even philosophical topics that touch on general religious belief.

Questions Covered:

• 23:11 - Did Jesus suffer the most pain of anyone on earth?
• 31:50 - In Romans 8:30 it sounds like all who are called will be saved. How do we reconcile this verse?
• 41:35 - What is the stance on the Bible being 100 percent literal or if only certain aspects are meant to be taken that way? How can you tell the difference?
