Weird Questions

Audio only:

Questions Covered:

  • 04:00 - Was it certain or contingent that Adam and Eve would fall or that the angels would fall? 
  • 14:42 - Suppose Middle-Earth really existed. Could God become incarnate as a man, an elf, a dwarf, and a hobbit all at the same time? If yes, could man, elf, dwarf, and hobbit Jesus interact with each other and maybe all go  
  • 17:03 - I am a bit of a survivalist nut and I am always preparing for the collapse of civilization. I was just wondering, if there was a nuclear war or really any kind of catastrophe that would trigger a societal collapse, and the chaos was so widespread that most of the bishops and all of the cardinals were killed, how would the new pope be elected? Could the surviving bishops (who I would imagine would not be cardinals because most likely they’d all be remote rural bishops) elect the new Pope? 
  • 23:34 - When the Magi came, do you think it made the Holy Family wealthy? Enough to travel and stay in Egypt, provide for a 3-year ministry of 13 plus, and for the care of his beloved mother Mary until the Dormition?
  • 28:43 - Where does the idea of toll booths come from, and why didn’t it make its way into the Western church?
  • 42:30 - Are the laws of logic and thought — identity, non-contradiction, and excluded middle — true of all *possible* universes, or only of ours? Would multiverse theories or alternate dimensions modify these rules? And do the laws *certainly* apply even here, or could one argue that maybe an extreme form of Scotistic “haecceity” versus “quiddity” means that maybe they don’t?
  • 49:23 - Why is most lunch meat round when bread is mostly square?
