According to Catholic Answers, absolution reflects the Church’s power to remove sin—including punishment in the afterlife—from a person’s moral roster:

Absolution (Ab = from; solvere = to free), is the remission of sin, or of the punishment due to sin, granted by the Church. (For remission of punishment due to sin, see Ecclesiastical Censures. Excommunication. Indulgences.) Absolution proper is that act of the priest whereby, in the Sacrament of Penance, he frees man from sin. It presupposes on the part of the penitent, contrition, confession, and promise at least of satisfaction; on the part of the minister, valid reception of the Order of Priesthood and jurisdiction, granted by competent authority, over the person receiving the sacrament.

Almost every single day, a new outrage. How long, O Lord?

Keep the Faith and stay close to God in prayer. This chaos will cease at some point.

Pope Francis is just full of surprises.

And all those 'surprises' are bad...

You turkeys are just too chicken to withhold absolution from these birds.

Soar with the eagles and then you will NOT use fowl language!
