Pints With Aquinas

I talk with Catholic speaker and regular host of "Catholic Answers Live," Trent Horn, about evangelization, apologetics, and loads of other interesting topics. Trent brings the thunder for this first episode under the new show title! We talk for almost four hours on a wide range of topics. (including an interruption from my dog) Trent is a heavyweight when it comes to his Catholic faith and few other apologists could preach the gospel as clearly and Gracefully as Trent.
NOTE: The number in the title card "288" is incorrect. With the change in name, "The Matt Fradd Show" will also adopt the "Pints with Aquinas" enumeration. This is Episode 188.
For more information on the change watch, the Announcement Video below.

    @@PintsWithAquinas God says this with love: The 30K+ institutions of man have been a curse with the 2000+ years of fruits to prove that. Solution: Don't follow Paul or Apollos or Cephas. Follow the Bible and follow Christ. The Father at Mt. Transfiguration interrupted Peter (paralleled with the Catholic club attempts to own the experience and profit monetarily in most cases). That's the problem and the fruits show it all too clearly. Apostle Paul clearly spoke against denominations in a sense of not following man. Drink the Bible straight up. Don't follow the mixologists of man with their favorite concoctions for more followers of themselves all in the Name of God. Follow God/Jesus/Bible only and put your denominations away per the early Church versus the churchclubs of today. Wherever 2 or more are gathered centered on God is the True Church as opposed to churchclubbin'.

    I owe Trent a lot for my conversion, his book "Why We're Catholic" opened the door for Catholicism in my life. Sadly I don't listen to his podcast anymore after how he handled the whole Pachamama debacle and the constant jumping through hoops to make Pope Francis seem Orthodox. We have a crisis in the Church and the answer isn't to just ignore that anything bad is happening and completely focus on evangelization. You can only convert so many Protestants until you realize that your own Church is burning down...

    The Catholic Church cannot burn down. Jesus prayed for its protection. Yes, fallible individuals do nutso things -- but the Holy Spirit strengthens us to endure and overcome. Everyone talking about how "we" need to fix the current crises: *yes we do.* And at the same time, as many humans as possible, beloved by the Father, deserve our evangelical outreach to become part of that "we". I strongly disagree that our evangelical specialists should abandon their stable focus on evangelism of non-Catholics, to focus on internal Church crises except insofar as reassuring converts that it's still safe to come in. If God is calling you to help rebuild and heal damaged parts of the Church right now, that's great. You're a white blood cell. But the body also has outstretched hands, too. And other people need them. I, like you, am a convert. Two years in. And yes, the spiritual battleground of modern times, including mass confusion among Church members, is... epic. But it's still more stable here than outside God's Church. This is the rock, and I cling to Jesus, and he doesn't let me down. And the work of bringing other people to the same blessings I've found, can't stop. Multiple things can be true at once. And different members of the body can reach different people at different times in different ways. If everyone jumped on the same bandwagon and topic all at once, we'd IMMEDIATELY stop helping every outsider for whom that's-not-their-issue-right-now. My suggestion would be to look for the good in whatever anyone does, unless they're BLATANTLY contradicting God. If they just seem to be 'ignoring' something that you think should be talked about by everyone at all times... maybe they're actually doing good work for God in a different way, and we should look for that, and remember that the body really does have different members with different purposes.

    Trent, you are my favorite apologist and a genuinely awesome man. I am a young Catholic man who loves the Faith but still has some doubts from time to time. Two arguments that I find to be most compelling against the existence of God and Catholicism in general are these. First, if God exists, why is it that he is so hard to see? What is the reason for Him not fully revealing Himself to us in the present day? Second, if I go all-in in my Catholicism, does that make me rigid and unable to genuinely entertain other ideas? Am I boxed in?

    What incredible minds. Thank you both for providing this discussion. I'm so glad to live in the internet age and have access to such rich and impressive content, especially since I would never encounter an informed, advanced exploration of these topics in my normal life. I really appreciate your work, Matt.

    Turncoat is a derogatory term from the American Revolutionary War used to insult someone who switched sides in the conflict. At the time soldiers literally wore decorated coats as part of their uniform.

    I'm very grateful that you had Trent on this conversation, conversation being where we find truth most often. I found his charge of St Thomas's Fallacy of Composition to be absolutely delightful, for it gives us the opportunity to work through a Thomistic thought primarily, at its base. I think that I disagree with Trent for the following reason: His assertion that St Thomas committed the fallacy of composition I think is based on an assumption of the nature of time that may not obtain. Since Trent, to my knowledge (I may have missed something in my surprise and pleasure) did not define 'time,' we need to deal with that concept, which is perhaps a bit trickier than Trent might (might, mind you) think, at least in this conversation. What is 'time'? Didn't St Augustine say, _What then is time? If no one asks me, I know what it is. If I wish to explain it to him who asks, I do not know_ ? I think that that depends on what you mean by 'what is'. Our definitions are not reality unless they accord with it, and that means that we have to ask some very serious fundamental questions about what we assume about them. Just what exactly are we asking? Are we asking to find an answer that accords with some other, already-familiar concepts? If we find something that is totally 'different,' how will we explain it (we don't do very well 'explaining' the electron, for example)? In physics, sometimes 'time' is equated with 'motion.' I have read physicists who insist that there is only motion and not time at all. This I think is a little simplistic and precipitous. In classical relativity, 'time' is part of 'space' in a kind of equation (perhaps something like 'space + time = 0') that says 'the faster you use space, the less time you have.' This is an oversimplification, but I think it'll do for this discussion. This means that time = space in a very real sense, so what Aquinas says about time applies equally to space and is not the fallacy of compposition. This nature of spacetime is the reason Mercury is in 'the wrong place,' for it is so deep in the sun's acceleration (gravity) that time runs more slowly on it than it does on earth. The same holds true for clocks in orbit, which run about 38,700 nanoseconds per day faster than clocks on earth. So we can't actually assume the same nature or the same kind of nature for time that we do for space. They are different though inextricable. Thus, I think that we actually can do and say as St Thomas does about time (he says early on in the Summa Contra Gentiles that we can't regress in time for infinity, which I think is true if the Big Bang Theory has validity to it, and thus the argument fro motion --- which I think quite convincing --- is in fact valid and true) without committing the Fallacy of Composition, because he's talking about something quite apart from space which seems to have a beginning, considering what we've seen of its expansion and motion. Something --- someone --- set it in motion. Trent, of course, goes on to reason carefully about the 'extreme forms' of the Fallacy of Composition and about everything else in this episode, and does so ennobling his mind and ours. Thank him for us (again), and thank you.

    I listen to Catholic videos in the mornings while prepping my upcoming lesson plans. I was prepping one on a part of The Crucible, where the credibility of witnesses is challenged. That was right when 44:57 played, lol. Thanks for the idea, Matt! Pull quotes from Fatherhood will be in tomorrow's lesson, right before the author's mugshot.

    This made me remember how grateful I was that I don't have to understand everything to be allowed to participate at Mass to return and receive Holy Communiion, and the great comfort and gratitude that the Truth doesn't depend on whether or not I believe it, and that faith isn't arrived at purely through reason. It is the gift of God to whoever will open their heart to Him. So in that sense Truth does depend on us :).

    The way he described his conversion I felt the same exact thing from Catholic to evangelical. God is so good!! He wants us to all connect. Tower of Babylon.
