Listeners also call in with questions about the Catholic Church's belief in Satan, prompting a discussion on the reality of evil and the influence of the demonic. Janine - I went on a retreat with a Jesuit Priest who said that Satin isn’t real, nor are Adam and Eve. What is the Church teaching on this? (11:54) Patrick - When people say follow your heart, would that be something that is pleasing to God or should we avoid that? Matt - I just heard a priest say you could still go to heaven if you commit suicide. Is that true? (26:06) Prince - Can I receive communion at a Greek Orthodox Church? Rose Mary - What would have been a good way to report this priest who denied Satin to his Bishop? Jacqueline - My husband said he would prefer cremation but I don't like it. What should I do?
