Mysterious Baby and Moral Dilemmas

In this podventure, we discuss the episode “The Visitors,” in which the Barclay family’s idyllic Christmas morning is interrupted by the advent (deliberate word choice) of an unhoused couple and their baby. The Spirit is at work, but by the time the Barlcays realize their role in this story, the mysterious family has vanished. But don’t worry. God’s plans can’t be thwarted, even when we miss the most obvious onramps. Also, Odyssey’s phantom neighborhood that only exists when the plot requires it, a little Les Mis discourse, and helping the poor: a discussion of Type 1 and Type 2 Errors (Tats got the terminology right!).
