The epitome of hair splitting.
Seems like, and it always had even when I was a Catholic, that they do their best to see how much sin they can get away with without worrying if its going to land them in hell forever.
When I was a catholic, I was playing a legalistic game. I asked several priests, what exactly WAS a mortal sin? The best they could do, was to say, if its of a serious nature, its probably a mortal sin. Serious nature? Probably a mortal sin? Are they kidding me? That is about as stupid, as saying he doesnt interpret scripture, he just reads it and tells me what it says. 🤯 I wanted to sin, but I only wanted to commit venial sins, up to, but just short of mortal sins. I wanted to avoid the big M. 🤣😁 How about them apples?
After years of that, I found I couldnt resist committing mortal sins anymore, I just wanted to avoid committing mortal sins of sacrilege, or the new one I just learned about a few days ago, a mortal sin of calumny. I was looking at a catholic site, and it also mentioned the sin of detraction. Maybe its a mortal sin of detraction. 🤗 Who knows for sure. When I knew I couldnt resist even those SPECIAL mortal sins, I gave up and sinned till I was blue in the face. 😁 Things are different now. 👍 I was never a woke catholic, however. I did not attribute to Satan, almost everything other people said. We never hear that, do we? 🙃🤑🤣🤪😆😉😔
