Open Forum for Non-Catholics

Questions Covered:

• 09:17 - Did God create light millions of years ago? With the speed of light from stars, how do we understand the age of the earth? 
• 16:07 - Is it okay that I believe in flat earth and the firmament if I am currently studying to be a Catholic? 
• 30:32 - I’ve been told that non-Catholics are not allowed to receive the Eucharist. I am also told that Catholics cannot go receive communion in other churches. Is this true? 
• 38:25 - A Protestant told me that the early Church was not Catholic, and that St. Athanasius was a born-again Christian, not baptized. Is that true? 
• 44:50 - Do Catholics believe that Jesus died for our sins and we are saved by grace or do you believe his sacrifice was not enough, so people have to go to purgatory?
