The Catholic Church's teachings on blessings of gay relationships have been a source of heated debate, and we don't shy away from the complexities involved. Delicate yet critical, our discussion examines the balance between doctrinal fidelity and public interpretation, especially in light of recent statements and blessings performed by James Martin. This episode doesn't just skim the surface; it scrutinizes the tensions within the Church, the nuances of religious practice versus orthodoxy, and the pressing need for clarity in a world rife with ambiguity. With the year winding down, our podcast reflects on personal quandaries over the integrity of Church teachings and the mysterious absence of divine intervention in times of moral crisis. ********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community:  https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comStore:  https://avoiding-babylon.sellfy.store/RSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV:  https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee:  https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylonBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched! Start for FREE Support the show********************************************************https://www.avoidingbabylon.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssSpiritusTV: https://spiritustv.com/@avoidingbabylonRumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1626455Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AvoidingBabylon
