Easy. Either they are bored with mandatory Sunday Mass, OR they have given in to sexual temptation. Either way, automatic Mortal Sin. You go to Hell forever.

I agree....that part about all of our sins being nailed to the cross where they remain eludes them. but if they didn't have this it takes away the need for the priest and the old testament like penance they have to do.

That reminds me that the Crucifix bothers me. No, not the Cross; that no longer is a stumbling block for me. The Crucifix depicts Jesus as frozen in a perpetual position of pain and humiliation.

It's done! He's off the Cross and at the closest possible position to Our Father in Heaven. And he will appear here on Earth's temporal plane...again. In the meantime, it's incredibly comforting and instructive to be sealed and led by the Holy Spirit and walking in Jesus' pattern and style!
