The indoctrination of the Catholic Church instills fear of being "cast out".

More than *cast out*.

Sent to hell for eternity if the priest retains their sins.

There was a situation a few years ago in Ireland, IIRC, where the families were forbidden to talk about the abuse under the threat of ex-communication.

Can there be any doubt they are a cult? Evil! Just evil!

"Sent to hell for eternity if the priest retains their sins."

Metmom, we've been knowing each other for a long time, and it saddens me that you would say such a thing. This is no way a Catholic teaching, in theory or in practice.

Why would you invent ---or, a more charitable supposition, repeat --- such bizarre things without checking whether they are true or false?
