Episode 9 - The Agony Letters, pt. 2

Episode 9 - The Agony Letters, pt. 2

This episode was slightly delayed by the amazing work students around the world have been doing in the encampments! In today's episode, Caroline and Shuli hit the mailbag again to respond to listener's relationship problems! They talk about three situations: the first deals with breaking up with Christianity, Mormonism in particular, and what spiritual remains we can hold on to. The second is about having a rich girlfriend who isn't out to her family. And the last is a return to the triad situation from the last agony letters episode. The listener responded with more details and raised a new question about being in a relationship with someone who is just starting to explore their queerness. What do the straights owe us? What do we owe them?
