Was the message that people in mortal sin don't go to confession? I'm confused.

I was told, when I thought I was in mortal sin, that I wasn't because I was there, at Confession. If I had been in mirtal sin I would not have been at Confession. And that venial sins are dealt with in Mass
Yes Michie, that was the message - because mirtal sin by uts very nature cuts you totally off from God so you would not be going to Confession. Mi was confused too. They seemed very lax to me

If people in mortal sin never went to confession.... I can't even wrap my head around it!I hadn't either Muchie. I was so sure I was in mortal sin.
Good! I have found that confession at times can leave to a bit more befuddled than before you went to confession with some priests.None of it made sense to me. I ended up very confused indeed. But anyway, I confessed the sin and received Absolution
I don't lack of understand Catholicism.You're lack of understand of Catholicism never ceases to amaze me.
That's so messed up.All our priests are very lax concerning Confession. The priest at my parish Church told me that he only listens to certain Confessions and the others he doesn't bother lustening to properly. I do not go to him and have left that Church for another one now.
Umm... That is really scary in my opinion. When priests are apathetic then there is no wonder the communion lines are short.All our priests are very lax concerning Confession.

I do not go to him and have left that Church for another one now.
It's my understanding that you cannot be punished for secular political beliefs. Especially civil rights. You were not campaigning for the Church to get behind performing ceremonies. It is my understanding there is a difference. I thought we were to stand up for the civil rights of all people. Believer or not. But I don't know the whole story. But it sounds bad and if it was as bad as you say, I'm sorry it happened.Not quite clear, for what are you sorry ?
