Greg and Cory continue their discussion of Catholic eschatology and how it differs with much of American evangelicalism. Will there be a "rapture" of Christians, with everyone who didn't accept Christ "left behind?" Will there be a thousand-year reign of Christ in the city of Jerusalem?

Greg takes Ed into the woods to have "the sex talk." Why does the Catholic Church care so much about sex and sexuality? In our secular postmodern culture, and increasingly in the Protestant evangelical world, who, what, when, where, you have sex with is irrelevant. Most people today can't understand why Catholicism makes a big deal out of it.
