Please show one statement, post, or article that espouses that belief. Surely you wouldn't want us to understand you are simply making a spurious accusation would you?

This has to be the biggest strawman argument for catholics to justify the control the priests exert over the membership.

We all sin. We know this as Paul admitted he struggled with some sort of sin. He didn't specify what it was. Was he conducting his life in anyway he chose??

If you are a believer in Christ you will produce good fruit for Him. That is a natural outgrowth of being a follower of Christ. At least it's supposed to be.

I constantly hear protestants declare "I have accepted Christ as my savior and therefore I am saved"....Once saved, always saved...Now if that does not free them from any responsibility for their own salvation, I don't know what does...
