Of course it's nuts.

We got a bunch of people here flipping out because the Pope is allowing priests to lift the automatic excommunication you get as soon as you get, or help someone get, an abortion. That is church law.

What, pray, is the penalty prescribed for abortion in all these so-called Bible Churches? And what penance do they prescribe for people to make right what they have done? Or does the sinner get off scot free?

And how can people with a straight face complain about getting forgiveness from a man, and then declare themselves categorically forgiven? If men can't forgive sins, that means you. So how dare you walk around telling everyone your sins have been forgiven by God when you didn't get that info straight from Him?

Ephesians 2: 5-9

Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. (KJB)

Douay-Rheims Bible: But God, (who is rich in mercy,) for his exceeding charity wherewith he loved us, 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together in Christ, (by whose grace you are saved,) And hath raised us up together, and hath made us sit together in the heavenly places, through Christ Jesus. That he might shew in the ages to come the abundant riches of his grace, in his bounty towards us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, for it is the gift of God; Not of works, that no man may glory.

When you in your self pride believe you can strive to obtain salvation by paying for your sins, you insult the riches of Hid Glory, for salvation, being cleansed from all sin before the law of sin and death which is covered by His precious blood IN HEAVEN, is the glory of God manifest. Your working to pay is as filthy rags before His Grace in Christ Jesus. Sorry, you will not change God's declaration to suit your Catholic mindset.
