Gavin Grey: UK correspondent on Pope Francis opening possibility of Catholic Church blessing same-sex couples
Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Wednesdays

Pope Francis has suggested he would be open to having the Catholic Church bless same-sex couples on a 'case-by-case' basis. This was in response to a number of requests sent to the Pope ahead of a global gathering about the Church's future. When asked to clarify, the Pope stated any request for a blessing should be treated with 'pastoral charity'. UK correspondent Gavin Grey says there's debate as to whether this stance is progressive, as the Pope said same-sex relationships were 'objectively sinful'.
