A non-Catholic CAN go in and talk with the priest, but the full benefits of the Sacrament will not be available to him. I’ve known several non-Catholics at retreats who have gone in and talked with the priest during the Confession time. (Usually on Saturday night.)

Full benefits? So Catholicism really is a points based system for salvation. How many net points on the good side are needed?

What's a non Catholic required to do to receive the full benefit of full forgiveness of God???
