Episode notes
When To Use The Humeral Veil With The Monstrance
- Use a humeral veil when holding the monstrance to emphasize that the Eucharistic blessing comes from Christ, not the priest.
- The veil covers the priest's hands and adds solemnity during processions and Eucharistic blessings.
Autism Telepathy Needs Rigorous Replication
- Claims of autism telepathy (Telepathy Tapes) warrant rigorous study; existing evidence is suggestive but methodologically weak.
- Jimmy found potential truth but warns wishful thinking and calls for controlled, replicable research.
Holy Water Test At Medjugorje Is Inconclusive
- A seer at Medjugorje did throw holy water on an apparition early on, which is documented.
- Holy things distress demons but do not necessarily force them to depart, so such a test is a data point but not definitive proof against a demonic origin.
We regularly give Patrons the opportunity to ask Jimmy Akin and Dom Bettinelli their mysterious questions and make them available exclusively to Patrons first and then later to the whole audience. This time, we have questions on the Shroud of Turin, the Library of Alexandria, the "heavens", and more.
