How far is it from home plate to center field at coors field?

Yes, he is a Roman Catholic.

Has any MLB team ever had 4 players with 30 HR and 100 RBI in one season?

The database I use only has game logs back to 1954, and since then, only 17 times has a team hit at least 8 home runs in a game. I checked the box scores for each, and here is what I came up with:

About half the time if a team hits at least 8 home runs, two more more players have a multihomer game

Twice in an 8-homer game, three players have had multihomer games:

9/14/87 - TOR @ BAL - Ernie Whitt(3), George Bell and Rance Mulliniks (2 each)

8/18/56 - MIL @ CIN - Bob Thurman (3), Ted Kluszewski and Frank Robinson (2 each).

None of these games featured 4 multihomer players.

So, to answer your question, no - at least not since 1954.

Yes, Todd Helton is still alive. He plays in the MLB on the Colorado Rockies(first baseman).
