• Do Catholics view baptism as a symbolic act?
• The Bible states that a priest should baptize any 'lamb' that is brought forth as asked to be baptized. How then can the Church refuse to baptize a child if their parents cannot guarantee they will be brought up Catholic?

• Do Catholics really worship Mary?  They do pray to her - isn't that a sort of violation of the First Commandment?
  
   

• How come only Catholics can take communion at mass?

• Why can’t priests marry?

• What role does the Pope play in a Catholic’s life?

• What is purgatory, and who goes there?
