Have any of you Catholics wondered why they never talk about hell anymore? Why no one talks about sin and just what is sin and the importance of confession? At our parish one priest is from India and seems to be rather nice but I can't understand much of what he says. The other priest it seems to be so casual, and starts out with a joke. Life is hard and difficult and sin is all around us, what is so funny? And do any other christians hear about hell from their churches? You would think that when dying one possiably going to hell because of sin would be of great discussion. God has great mercy but also great justice.
You are so right, in this era of PC it is never mentioned in most conversations.
Certainly any good priest, or minister, worth his salt must consider hell an important topic of discussion for any faith.
Fortunately over the years We have been reminded of the existance of Hell, and that as you say God has great mercy, so does he have justice.
Anyone that sugar coats religion, and doesn't mention hell is doing a great dis-service not only to themselves, but to God as well.
