66 - Unity and Diversity
Show Notes

How do we balance unity and diversity within the Catholic church? Do Catholics have to accept every single one of the official teachings of the church? Does union with the pope mean accepting and believing every single thing he says?

In this episode, we discuss unity and diversity within the Catholic church.
