Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:40 – How do we prove that we have a soul? 19:17 – How do mortal sin and venial sin affect our soul? How does the Holy Spirit help with that? 23:36 – Are there new angels being created all the time or are there a finite amount? Can they at any time become a demon? 45:47 – I’m LDS and we don’t believe in infant baptism. The CC says it respects the dignity of all life, but also claims that all humans have original sins. I see this as a contradiction. How do you reconcile that?
