ASK FATHER: Marriage problem, bad confession experience train wreck

How about answering the question instead of cherry piking parts of comments and building strawmen to knock down?

I said.....And you claim divorce is not a sin? Pray tell, show us where in the CCC it says that. Then why annulments?

Show us where the CCC tells us that divorce is not a sin.

[Elsie]

I don’t think they are here to learn. Thank you.

We don't appreciated having a haystack thrown at us, with the statement, "The needles in here; find it yourself."

[D-fendr]

It was a yes/no question. Is she or isn’t she?

[annalex]

As best I can say, yes to 66. I am not a priest. I thought you wanted a yes or no on Metmom’s post that had a number of poorly formulated questions.

[annalex]

Need someone to read it to you?

“divorce ... can be tolerated and does not constitute a moral offense”

Canon 2383, I gave you a link.

[annalex]

I don’t think I gave you a “haystack”. I gave you the best answer I have, and I did so most accurately.

[Elsie]

There has been no evidence in this thread that you are not an idiot.

Are you?

[Elsie]

Maybe you didn’t; but other Catholics surely have.

[Elsie]

I thought you wanted a yes or no on Metmom’s post that had a number of poorly formulated questions.

Nope; I wanted an answer that pertained to the data given in the initial posting of this thread.

All the rabbit trails led from there.

[D-fendr]

All I’m getting for your response is dancing around.

Yes or No?

[D-fendr]

I’m took your question and substituted “living in sin” for “mortal sin.”

You demanded a yes or no answer. So.. Yes or no?

[verga]

You have been given the only answer that there is and insist on posing a false dichotomy. I pity you and I will pray for you.

[Elsie]

I’m took your question and substituted “living in sin” for “mortal sin.”

MY question substituted NOTHING, but used the original data provided.

Your church is the organization that SUBSTITUTES things not found in the bible.

Your actions in this thread provide a really good illustration of this.

Mary is dead, your two newest 'saints' are DEAD, and your prayers to them are worthless.

[Elsie]

You have been given the only answer that there is and insist on posing a false dichotomy.

Catholics can't COUNT, either??

Yes/no looks like TWO answers to people who can THINK ON THEIR OWN.

[Elsie]

I pity you and I will pray for you.

You've been doing this for a long time.

You starting to realize your prayers are WORTHLESS?

[Elsie]

After gathering my courage, I waited in line for over 2 hours in the heat of the noonday sun only to be refused confession by the priest.

I'll ASSUME that the priest felt PITY for her; since it was revealed that he PRAYED for her.

[Elsie]

It is hard for me to believe that our God would turn someone in my predicament away.

God wants to right your relationship with the Church and with Himself.

Mary is dead, your two newest 'saints' are DEAD, and your prayers to them are worthless.

Then you need to read "Heaven is for Real." seems that there are protestants that disagree with you.

[verga]

*SIGH*

[Elsie]

Then you need to read "Heaven is for Real." seems that there are protestants that disagree with you.

There are LOTS of them that do!

I've have; however; read a very popular book about Heaven.

Here is an excerpt:

1 Corinthians 2:9

But as it is written:

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

Of course; if a person chooses to believe what a little boy reveals, well, they'd probably believe what a bunch of folks in Portugal say, too.
