Fr. Barron and Dr. Scott Hahn discuss the New Apologetics

[betsybk56]

I could listen and learn from every word that comes from these Christlike men's mouth! I am trying....and definitely learning! Thankyou forever...

yes! there's no hope of convincing someone to believe, only suggesting it. To fail to win the trust and respect of the other is to fail the battle of faith, even if you win the argument.

In addition catholic apologists would learn from their marxist, feminist, etc. friends nuances and implications of their own faith.

Dr Hahn says, "...I didn't have a sense of subtraction, I wasn't leaving anything behind..."

I find this puzzling as it's on the lips of most of the converts to Catholicism, but when I reverted, I left shed-loads of stuff behind. Because, even as an Evangelical, nearly everything was Relativist/Modernist, and so I don't really get this.

It seems disingenuous because Protestantism and Modernism share the same common intellectual heritage from Ockham, so it can't have been merely an augmentation

Marxists, atheists, radical feminists.  Ouch.

I wish Scott Hahn would let other people speak. On the Ewtn programs he does this same thing- monopolizes the conversation with his great knowledge. It is hard when there are other guests that one would like to hear also.

Not all the people know how to apreciate the beauty of the catholic church...

Dr. Scott Hahn is great

May God bless him :)

This is a complete non-sequitur, but I wish Scott Hahn would start wearing long sleeved shirts and show a little cuff under his jackets. He uses his hands so much that it draws attention to his sleevelessness.

I've long been puzzled that so many people assume Pope John's concept of 'opening the windows' at Vatican II was to let the 'En-lightenment' into a musty, darkened room, which has had the shutters locked for centuries.

For me, I've always seen it like Noah's Ark - Peter's Barque - letting the wonders of the Gospel out after being cooped up for so long because of the deluge of destruction outside...

I wonder what anyone else thinks?
