Answer
9. **d. All of the above.** Each scenario describes a misuse of the Sacrament of Reconciliation. A abuses it by confessing a sin with no intention of amending his life (he continues to commit fraud). B and C abuse it by not having true contrition for their sins (drunken driving and perjury) and likely not intending to change their behavior.<br /><br />10. **c. Gregory is sad because his aunt died. She was a faithful Catholic, so they had a funeral mass for her. He prays for her every night before he goes to sleep.** This aligns with Catholic teaching, which emphasizes praying for the dead and recognizing that salvation is ultimately God's decision. Option A references Limbo, a concept no longer part of official Catholic teaching. Option B denies the existence of Hell, which is contrary to Catholic doctrine. Option D presumes salvation based solely on being Christian, while the Catholic Church teaches that salvation requires faith and good works.<br /><br />11. **F. False.** Cardinal virtues (prudence, justice, fortitude, temperance) derive their name from the Latin "cardo," meaning "hinge," suggesting they are pivotal virtues upon which other virtues depend.<br /><br />12. **F. False.** While reflecting on the *source* of distractions can be helpful in the long run, the immediate practice during meditation is usually to gently acknowledge the distraction and return focus to the object of meditation (breath, prayer, etc.). Over-analyzing distractions during meditation can be counterproductive.<br /><br />13. **T. True.** Faith can be placed in various things, such as a person, an ideal, or a principle. It doesn't have to be specifically religious.<br /><br />14. **T. True.** The Nicene Creed summarizes the core beliefs of the Catholic faith.<br /><br />15. **T. True.** Monotheism, by definition, is the belief in a single God.<br />
