Eye of the Tiber:
Catholic Answers Runs Out Of Questions; To Close Its Doors In May
San Diego, CA–It was officially announced today that after 25 years, the largest lay-run Catholic apostolate for evangelization and apologetics in the United States Catholic Answers is closing its doors for good this May. The decision to shut down the apostolate was revealed on a live broadcast of *The World Over *with Raymond Arroyo last week when, during the break, Catholic Answers Founder and President Karl Keating was caught on a hot mic saying, “Honestly, though, I’m kinda over it. I mean, how many times during Lent do I have to be asked whether frog legs are considered meat?” 63-year-old Keating spoke to the press after the interview and apologized to anyone he may have offended. “Here’s the thing…we’ve pretty much answered everything there is to answer. Simply put, we’ve run out of questions.” The apostolate is expected to close its doors after releasing its final issue of Catholic Answers Magazine, in which the topic of the proper amount of incense required during a Chaldean Rite liturgy is discussed. “Yup…that’ll pretty much wrap it up,” Keating said.
FAKE NEWS – Eye of the Tiber is sort of a Catholic version of The Onion.
But if you ever listen to CA radio for any length of time you might think they have run out of questions.
 
Yup, I believe it. There are times when I don’t post anything for a while because it all seems to be re-hash. But then CA starts posting little “reminders” and I jump right back in . 😃
 
They can’t run out of questions. As many as the stars of the sky and the grain of sand at the shore will be the number of species they will have to ask whether it is meat or not.
 
There’s still the burning question about coat racks in Catholic churches and the lack thereof…

Well . . . since they all taste like chicken, I think it’s a valid question . . .😃
 
It is not about the questions…it is about the discussions! :grouphug:

We are really good at getting off topic. :whacky:

But that leads to revelations and insight and more discussion! oh my:hypno:
 
Just so everyone knows: Eye of the Tiber is a Catholic version of the Onion. It’s satire.
 
Thanks for sharing about that blog’s existence. The one page I read is a scream!
 
Even though there’s a good deal of repetition on CA Live, it’s still one of my favorite radio programs. I kind of enjoy the times when I’m able to spit out the right answer before the host can and impress my wife and kids. The best times are Sunday mornings when they replay a show I heard earlier in the week, so I not only know the answer, but also the side points they’re going to mention. So not only do I look fairly intelligent, but somewhat psychic as well.
 
I don’t think that anybody has run out of good questions it is just that instead of asking them we rehash the same 4 questions again and again and again. 😃
 
“Honestly, though, I’m kinda over it. I mean, how many times during Lent do I have to be asked whether frog legs are considered meat?”
Reminds me of the time a bloke walked into a French Restaurant, sat down and said to the waiter, “Waiter, do you have frog’s legs?”

Waiter; “Oui, Monsieur!”

Customer; “Then hop across the road and get me a packet of cigarettes!”
