Whether one confesses their sins to a priest, or to Jesus Christ is no small matter. But to you, it is throwing mud like a bunch of mountain gorillas to have strong convictions on this.
People sin, when they do, what do YOU recommend they do? Go to a priest, or go to Jesus? Inquiring minds want to know.
Since you have a higher and loftier ethical position than either Catholics or Protestants, what on earth do YOU do when YOU sin?
I see precious little of that on the "religion" forum.
"Religion" discussion here looks very much like the mountain gorilla behavior I described.
If that's your level ... carry on.
