But those who "know" they have been "saved" are Catholic can go on sinning boldly -- they know God will forgive them anyway knowing they can have a "priest" absolve them.

Comfy, isn't it? I would say that it is the ultimate in a religion made for, and by men.

Prooftexting, hey? Twisting, falsify and distorting, when you have nothing constructive to say?

Pecca fortiter, Protestant! That was Luther's suggestion.

knowing they can have a "priest" absolve them

What talent!

Do you have a problem with Jesus giving the power to forgive sins to the Apostles AFTER the Resurrection? Or did the Apostles make that up, too?
