I have been catholic from birth ( born in Brazil) I have been listening to Bishop Barron for a while now. We need to keep this "wave" going, people like the bishop and Dr Hahn and others are teaching how we see church beyond the priest/ bishop as a person and see the real church that is so beautiful.
Thank you Bishop Barron!!! If you ever read this. You have helped me.
Thank you for opening my eyes to Catholicism.
(Ps I'm 21 so don't lose hope. You're doing God's work)
What's your present religion?

Working on joining the catholic church
Wow. That's good to know.
@@johnnypop-tart335 you must see vaticancatholic.com the video on the third secret of Fatima.
I can't believe it ended. They didn't publish the Q & A session. This is the best thing I've seen probably all month. Captivating.
I love his mind, alway seeking the highest level.
He is the new Fulton Sheen of our time. Lets pray that God will make him more strength and fervor in spreading the Gospel.
Brilliant and inspiring, as always! God speaks through you, Bishop Barron!🙏🏼❤️
i think this is the best speech out of dozens of hours i've heard of bishop Barron, i just can't get enough of it as an agnostic who considers himself "culturaly" catholic, this man is a gem to hear!
Nnn
Bishop Barron speaks so eloquently and love the rhythm and flow of his words. Very captivating.
Thanks you Bishop Barron for always opening my eyes to the truth.
Beautiful. I love the analogy of how faith extends beyond the limits of reason, as it does in a relationship. The book is excellent as well. Keep at it, Bishop. I miss seeing you more often on TH-cam, but I know you're busy with other things.
Total nonsense
Thanks Bishop Barron for recovering the word ARGUE from it's negative connotations. God bless.
I really enjoyed this discussion. Thank you Bishop Robert Barron!
Fantastic show. I love seeing Christian intellectualism on display. Much respect to his excellency and Amazon on this.
Bishop Barron shows what real religion is all about, great man
Mises Hayek So what are you that allows you to judge and slander in such a fashion?
Mises Hayek and you know better than he? What’s your faith background? On whose authority do you speak?
Mises Hayek What does the magisterium currently say? Shall we use the catechism as our source?
And why does that allow you to be so bitter in judgment and slanderous? Maybe you should answer that one first, Christian
Tolerance is a secular virtue. Love is a Christian virtue.
Killing the replay button @ 19:00 -24:20. One of the clearest and most understandable analogy of explaining the virtue of FAITH.
Mind is hungry of God!!! Great words, Bishop!
God bless you!
37:30 wow! Such a beautiful explanation of our longing for God and how we mistakenly (and repeatedly) connect our infinite desire for Truth to finite things that will never truly satisfy our hearts. Thanks for the great lesson Bishop Barron.
Thank you so much for this interview. I greatly enjoy hearing Bishop Barron speak about Jesus and our Catholic Faith. God bless you, your excellency. Good interview, as always.
Bishop Barron, God bless you and all the other great apologists out there right now.
Thank you Bishop Barron for dedicate your life to God! You have helped so many people to love God and come closer to Him. You are one of the best gifts that God has given to us. I pray for you and other nuns, priests, and religious every day. Please keep up your great work! We love you very dearly.
I always learn so much when I listen to one of Bishop Barron's videos.
Unfortunately, 5 million Catholics in LA and we can't get them to vote in accordance with the teachings.
It only needs to begin with one and Bishop Barron is doing all he can for it. Numbers are steadily being helped. The comments section of this very video is revealing of that. One can only sow the seed and water it. The faithful God is AT WORK. You and I should be responsible FOR OUR OWN STAND.
@@marypinakat8594 I completely agree. Bishop is doing important work. It really saddens me to see even within the faith they try to bring him down (i.e. Church Militants). I saw the interview with Ben Shapiro and how people lashed out at Bishop when he didn't condemn Ben when he asked "I don't believe Christ is the Messiah ... am I screwed?" Condemning is not sowing... and Bishop handled it perfectly.

Yes we Catholics have so much to be thankful for a Shepherd like Bishop Barron. God bless you!

Great talk. Too bad for the abrupt ending.
God bless you Bishop Baron
We love you
Amen Bishop I've been saying for 40 years that dumbing down the faith will lead to an aging of practicing Catholics. The Gospel is about "social justice." That said when you forget Christ's Kingdom in favor of the latest social cause (usually tainted by politics) you see only people 40 and above at Mass. Using Jesus as a prop, while leaving out the full Gospel message, to promote "social justice" two things eventually happen. One, the Church becomes useful to government in the sense that it supports government social programs, and two, any young person can get what the Church offers on any secular college campus. So a religious institution that in the past built schools, settlement houses, orphanages and hospitals now just shills for the welfare state. The Church does not need to be hip or edgy. The Church just needs to present the truth.
Great questions and thought provoking insights from Bishop Barron! A wonderful blessing to share at Amazon, Seattle and online.
Most timely for the Bishop of Catholic Social Media!
@@m-hayek1985
I don't think he has ever made a 'blanket statement' that all humans are saved, independent of lot of other points.
Personally I would like to see ALL people saved and I also HOPE for it. Personally again, I have the strongest belief about it because Jesus died to save ALL. It was the ultimate that the Father gave us.
I would humbly wait till TIME ENDS and ETERNITY BEGINS and choose till then to live in the hallowed HOPE that ALL will be saved.
@@m-hayek1985 Nonsense. We are the only religion that has a Creed; what we believe passed down to us by the Apostles. We are also the only Faith that has a Magisterium, a teaching Tradition. Being liberal and/or modernist, does not apply to Catholics. 'Modernism is the synthesis of all heresies' - Pope Pius X, Sept 1907. Ne Timeas.
@@m-hayek1985 No, it was intended for you. Your comments in relation to Bishop Barron and 'hope' are erroneous and without foundation. Any Catholic teaching, and/ or doctrine, can be cross-referenced with our Catechism. There are no opinions, only Truth.
@@m-hayek1985 You should read how the Catechism explains 'Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus' if you want to talk about dogma
@@m-hayek1985 My understanding of 'your' grammar is fine. As this is a public forum, perhaps you can provide proof to support your claims as to precisely what Bishop Barron said about 'hope' and 'salvation'. No anecdotes, no opinions..........proof.
Bishop Barron. Awesome. Rushing to buy the book. Forwarding this video to friends here and abroad. God bless you.
Gracias Bishop Barron, por llevar el evangelio utilizando estos medios de comunicación . Dios lo bendiga
Thanks for this great talk, it's so crucial for today's day and age.
Another phenomenal talk, love these long forum discussions with BB.
Yes Bishop's lengthy forums are always well packed with wholesome substantial material.
@@marypinakat8594 Hi! Did you download the new APP *ClickToPray* ?
Bishop Barron, you have a lot to say, and you do it so well. I love your clear analogies and thoughtful arguments that are ever so respectful.
I often wonder what would happen if you, and say... Scott Hahn were to meet for a roundtable discussion. Drinking from two firehoses operating at once could give someone on the receiving end quite an overwhelming experience!
I am grateful for your ministry and teaching that has helped me to be a better disciple. You have stepped into the breach and set the example of what it is that ALL of the faithful need to do. I will pray for your continued success in winning hearts, minds and souls, and accompany that with my own efforts through your example. Thank you for your prayers for us as well. I know that we are never far from your thoughts.
I love this . I’ve downloaded it and I’m going to keep listening to all that was said .
I am so grateful To our Blessed Lord for you Bishop Baron ♥️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you for this book! I live with an anti-Catholic and this helps me know how to discuss issues intelligently. Currently, things feel like a minefield at home.
Love you bishop!!!
NO love your family.
God bless Bishop Barron. Keep up the good work.
Thoughtful, intelligent discussion on faith and reason and how both coexist. Somewhat complex ideas made easier to comprehend.
So sane, rational and real. Awesome!
Heavy expression.BishopBarron,love you
Bishop Barron thank you that's really owesome
You, nonbeliever will find this video when you're ready like I did. God bless you in the mean time.
Beautiful explanation 👌 👏 Bishop!! God Bless 🙌 you. You are always in my Prayers.
I truly enjoyed this video , I find myself wanting more of the Bishop and learning how to be closer to my Catholic faith. I hope in the near future the Bishop would teach his Priest how to convey this message to the people of the Church and get them hungry again for the TRUTH. This was brilliant and thanks for educating me and others to seek the message of God , great man Bishop Barron and God Bless You.
I love you Bishop Barron! God bless you!! Loved the part about hooking infinite desire to something finite (circa 38:00).
Thank you Father wonderful Approach to a very real issue.
Wonderful interview!!! Thankyou.
What a great conversation!
Great interviewer!
Monumental a video!

Never ever thought I would be noted for such.

Spectacular interview on our Catholic Faith.
Thanks. It was a joy to do this.

The crazier modern secular trends go, the more appealing this long-lived tradition becomes.
Dear Bishop Barron! You reach us here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil... God bless you and your work of spreading the message of Jesus Christ!!
I think the overwhelming amount of information on the Internet is confusing people. Thank God for leaders like Bp. Barron and the gifts he has for preaching the gospel amidst all of this unprecedented intellectual noise.
A profound discussion - makes me want to read Lonergan. Thank you.
Thanks for the upload, I had been waiting for it since its announcement. :)
Very pertinent direction in this talk. Badly needs to be heeded.
Awesome!!!!
Bishop Barron! I just saw that you actually read these comments. Since that's the case, I would like to give you a really big thank you for your faithfulness to God's call on your life. You are defiantly a significant conduit of His love and beauty to the minds and hearts of many, many people. I have no doubt that He greatly delights in you.
God bless you!
These are the debates we all need to have!!!!
Really appreciate this video.
I love Bishop Barron. He’s so cool ❤️
Own it. Reading it now.
Wondering if Arguing Religion will come out in an Audible version?? Dying to read it but I find audio versions allows me to listen when reading is impossible.
There is an audible version available.
Best way to hold to your beliefs and still stay tolerant is to live by the COURAGE of your convictions.
It is important to point out that there are twice as many Catholics now as there was in 1970. The crisis of declining numbers applies only to the west. Ne Timeas.
Catholicism is actually growing in the Americas. Catholics now make up 22% of the population in the US
@@mrsmith2876 that's just the advantage of raising non emancipated females and being "born" into a religion instead of chosing a religion. Low education leads to highbirth rates. Then again, the higher the education the less likely for the individual to be religious.
@@psobbtutorials6792 You don't understand why the Catholic faith grows then. Of course lower income households on average have more children but the reason that Catholics regardless of social class tend to have many children is due to the Church declaring contraceptives and abortion (murder) are in violation of natural law.
@@Jaco6185 Growth is no indication of validity. Besides, wouldn't that principle make islam the true religion? Or no religious affiliation like here: www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-number-of-americans-with-no-religious-affiliation-is-rising/
I bothered looking it up and the only places christianity has been growing seems to be africa. Maybe you can link me some sources.
I don't see how the church is any different from consumerism and throwing away traditions can make sense as long as there is a rational reason to it/advanced understanding to an underlying Problem. If we wouldn't be throwing away such traditions we'd never advance.
The chruch has a label (cross), identity (brand) and relies upon the donation of it's believers (consumers), so really what part of you is critical of consumerism if you went back to the chruch? Undeniably, there are many parallels.
Besides, there is a sensible reason why I don't really trust internet comments on their "expedition" into atheism....especially if they call it antitheism, which is something completly different to begin with. Atheism = lack of believe, antitheism = opposition to theism. @@fallenstudent1103
Catholicism and the Personal universe of Christ jives so beautifully with our experience of the beauty and meaningfulness of life. I find that in the end , from all angles Catholicism offers the only really fully coherent and joyful worldview out there. She's all about the teleology .. the meaningfulness , hope and inestimable value of life even through suffering. Our failings only provide a backdrop and accentuate the deeper goodness.
bishop your are a great thinker
I would have just made the point that Catholicism is actually growing worldwide around the 18:00 mark, especially in the newly industrialized countries, though it looks honestly does look like its weakening in some western countries. There is hope in Central and Eastern Europe though with the rise of the new conservatism and a reversion of their overall cultures to their Christian roots.
Don't omit Africa!
I am in Central / Eastern Europe and I wish we had more bishops and Catholic leaders like Bishop Barron, who combine faith and reason and can communicate in a compelling way.
Jajaja “his day job” love you Bishop!!!
Fantastic
Nice, thanks!
?
Wow... I can not believe I missed this for 2 years ... I need to organize my approach to the Bishop's world, material, better... and I am a Word on Fire member... obviously not a good one. I am a better man every time I listen to the Bishop. Thank you! Hey what about the q&a???
“Give it away, give it away.” When Bishop Barron said this I couldn’t help but recall The same titled song by Red Hot Chili Peppers. In this instance love, when given away, means that much more.
please can we get the reste of the video? Q&A
Ended before the audience questions were heard, or responded to by Bishop Barron.
Yes, I would have like to hear the questions and his answers, too.
i got this in the recommended feed. I was wondering why the usual bile was missing in the comments and just realized its the Bishops own channel.
'Behold this treasure in earthen vessel'. Really like to have heard from someone at last. While all the anger and frustration is most natural and legitimate, the real and total freedom of a victim will not perhaps materialise without forgiving the offender.
WenLi Yang what do you mean by that?
WenLi Yang no what do you mean by how long will you last?
WenLi Yang and why isn’t forgiveness part of it?
WenLi Yang I’m afraid you aren’t making sense. Could you try to explain yourself in complete sentences? Thanks
@@GaoDaHoi
Did some abuser talk to you about forgiveness?
Is the question and answer session available?
*This is awesome! :)*
Yes!
Most Awesome for the Bishop of Catholic Social Media.
Most timely!
@@teurascalx2009
Did I operate apart from the provision available?
What justifies your non classy language?
@@teurascalx2009
Whoever you are for a while I assumed your lines of comment elsewhere to that of mine on forgiveness were from a non-Christian or Atheist even. But you said you are both a Christian and Catholic too. As I already got across to you there are way too many non-Christians and Atheists even who have exemplary behaviour standards.
Do you really think I should take you for a moderator with regards to comments here?
No Q&A?
If Bishop Barron has a book that actually covers the "tough" questions about the Bible, I'd love to know.
I have yet to see a "rational" discussion about the "inconsistencies" found there.
It's like reading a Q n A format book.
Audio was very bad but very good talk!
Where's the Q and A section?
I suppose it will be back on with Brandon Vogt. The Q and A was part of Brandon's arrangement for his Podcasts.
Hello Bishop Barron, I always enjoy listening to you speak! Your interview with Ben Shapiro was really great too! I'm just wondering why your pectoral cross is not visible? Did someone ask you to conceal it?
CoriLV13 Honey No, no, it’s purely practical.
Does Bishop Barron still respond to comments? If he does can you make a detailed video on purgatory?
Francis K. Agree
He had a video on purgatory but it was not that long. You can search it.
FYI, among the videos on purgatory at th-cam.com/play/PLgJBHNHqUJUtIhy3pn9U5gC_YVGK5z8Wc.html , check the one on Dante.
Totally privatising your relationship with God and never arguing and standing up for truth makes as much sense as never having an argument within a marriage. Keeping things to yourself merely keeps you isolated inside your own bubble. You never learn anything new, and you can’t make real connections with people because you don’t understand them, and consequently can’t get to know them. Then we become like ships passing in the night. There is so much in this great clip. BRB is right. Faith is not pre- or sub-rational; it has to be trans-rational since a finite mind cannot grasp God’s infinite love.
Well said!
Well said!
Too short. We want a marathon.
Bishop Barron should invite Bill Maher to argue his atheism. How great would it be when Bill finds some lame excuse not to do that ?
Maher can only talk about fundamentalism and somewhat astoundingly , he assumes Catholics, Jews, Orthodox.. and others with the best intellectual traditions.. ( a lot deeper than atheism for instance.. :-) ) are like that. Really strange.
In a country where freedom of religion is allowing a Satanic Mass but is legislating for the Seal of Secrecy to.be broken, this message is an imperative.
Bernard Lonergan: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Lonergan
I enjoy (you) Bishop Barron very much.
One thing:
You say you preface your comments with "friend"...
What happens when you're arguing with a ROBOT? Artificial intelligence is a real thing and we are rapidly approaching a point when you, or anyone who has the gift of the gab (or keyboard), will not know when their opponent is a ROBOT... Technically, there is NO WAY YOU CAN WIN. This is the whole basis of my return to Catholicism from Atheism - that it transcends argument. I assure you I am not "signalling virtue" when I say there is no way anyone can win an argument with an Atheist. (...the argument falls on the one making the claims etc etc). So my take from all of this talk, is that argument will GET YOU NOWHERE. The evidence so far shows - via your success - that I am wrong. But for how long? How many arguments will it take?
I believe it was a great saint who said: "My job is to inform, not to convince."
Anyway, for what it's worth, receive my prayers and thanks.

Steel-man. I'm gonna remember that.
Who was Bishop Barron quoting when he said, ‘the mind is like a stomach’ instead of like a box
He was quoting Fr. Bernard Lonergan. You can learn more about him here: www.lonerganresource.com/
Looked out for you Brandon Vogt.
Really.
Bishop Barron makes the point about arguing religion, in partcular with atheists. However, I ask the bishop and all of you out there, how do we do this in the current climate? My experience is that one of the commonest atheist weapons in the debate is to demean, to mock, to demean, to insult, etc. A great many atheists refuse to enter into a dialogue. They will insult you, the Bible, Jesus, God, etc. They use pejorative terms and imagery. Have you found similar problems in trying to establish a dialogue?
Interesting uhm, i love read Bible feed My soul so if i hearing like Heaven!😇😇😇
@Bishop Robert Barron What is the *GOOD* of the other?
What is the true good of you? Try to find it and you might know the good of the others.
I don’t know HOW to argue religion because the Only religion I knew growing up was Catholicism. I’m shocked to learn how many religions or beliefs there are.
Good occasion to buy the book so you learn how, no?
Thanks, I already have it. I’m going to make time to read it 😊
I've seen Sunday school classes with better video quality. C'mon Amazon!
I think the whole audience got evangelized!
Bishop, with due respect, why do you hide your episcopal cross? Is it embarrassing, or uncomfortable?

The question is...Did You Buy It?
@@stevenwiederholt7000 absolutely not. Why would any 21st century, educated person believe in an incomprehensible, supernatural being.

@@stevenwiederholt7000 Yes and for every 2 of yours, I could name 2 non believers having equal qualifications. I did state in my original statement "why." The question still remains why would ................ Because they believe doesn't prove there is a god.
@@rjskeptic5273
Why?......It's the truth?
"Because they believe doesn't prove there is a god."
If by Prove, you mean an equation, something we can write down on a blackboard, then no, no proof, BUT neither can you Disprove it. That's why its called Faith. But its not blind faith.
