#12767 How Should Catholics Respond to Aliens? Eucharist and Mary - Tom Nash

1 seconds Posted Jun 18, 2026 at 11:00 pm.

– If you found yourself face-to-face with what appeared to be an intelligent being from another planet, how should you respond as a Catholic?

– Why is the Eucharist not only a meal but also a sacrifice?

– I’m LDS but am starting to question the Great Apostacy. There doesn’t seem to be a strong historical basis for it. What is the historical evidence for the Catholic claim of apostolic succession?

– My friend is an evangelical Protestant but he won’t consider Catholicism unless we give him answers about eschatology. He is a dispensationalist.

– I don’t understand this distinction between hyperdulia and worship of Mary.

– I saw this video “New Evidence for Early Popes” that talked about how in the early church history would be dated according to who was pope at the time. Is this a good argument for the papacy?

– I grew up in the Southern Baptist church believing that baptism is just a symbol. I’m starting OCIA soon. It sounds like the Catholic Church is going to accept my baptism as valid. This doesn’t make sense to me because I believed it was just a symbol.
