Episode 143. Virgin Mary

0:00 1:14:57

There's just something about the Virgin Mary.

She stirs up big feelings - she has for millennia.

Some have perhaps given her more prominence than she would feel comfortable with.

Others have hacked down her statues in reforming zeal.

Others never think about her, except when they come across a nativity scene in a shopping mall (and even that’s becoming a rarity).

So, it’s time we met Mary properly this Christmas.
