What took this so long?

Why is this already not a law in all 50 states?

They can certainly pass the law. But no proper Catholic priest will obey it.

Because it's absolutely unenforceable. A priest must follow man's law, but only when it does not interfere with God's law.

Why do you defend Islam in one thread and attack Catholicism in another?

Because what is said in the confessional is inviolate & it will stay that way . Priests have been tortured to death rather than violate the sanctity of the confessional & I for one don't see a judge ordering a Catholic priest tortured to get them to talk but if you were the judge I might be mistaken. Next thing the political types will do is allow the electronic eavesdropping in church confessionals if this is upheld cause the priests are not cooperating.
