So I choose to confess to God who promises to forgive me if I do.

I don’t need a priest to get in the way and lead me to believe something that may or may not be true.

I believe God because He said so, not because a man told me so. I trust God over man.

But how much penance would you know how to do???

do you think that He was kidding when He said whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven, whose sins you shall retain, they are retained??? What do you suppose that He meant by that???
