No Why Catholics Go to Confessiong This much?

Apparently, the reason the Vatican opened its secret camera is as follows:
  "The Vatican has always lamented that fewer and fewer Catholics go to confession, the sacrament in which the faithful can receive forgiveness if you sincerely confess their sins to a priest.
  To combat the decline, the "court of conscience" invited the audience in the frescoed rooms of the palace, its imposing 16th century for a two-day conference ended Wednesday. "
  so why not go to Catholics and confession?

    I would say that older generations have inculcated this act of confession — their children (boys) - the "new" or modern Catholic, which in turn, moved to see unless they do so. But I'm not Catholic.

  2. BellaPet says:

    I personally think it's because of 2 reasons. 1. because like the rest of the world Catholics are becoming less and less traditional and confess that it is not necessary when attending mass. 2. because of all the bad things that the Catholic priests of all about what questions .. when the leader of their church is not the practice of what is preaching. I have nothing against Catholics. I am Catholic and this is just a combination of what I've been hearing and feeling.

    what the Chamber of Secrets, and even if they had one - you have to do with the fact that people are not cgoing a confession.
      Personally, I do not go as often because I'm trying to live a better life.
      some do not believe it and that scares them accountable. Unfortunately, some feel that it is easier to go to God, to confess one antoher.
      but really - what secret chanber - Is there some sort of basilisk or something there?

    As a cradle Catholic who went to a private school for 13 years, I would say the real reason that people are not as apt to go to the confessional regularly is the laziness and corruption. Frankly, we're making things worse and by the shame and laziness, do not our way in that country. I am far from perfect, the confidence, but I probably gone to confession in 5 years. Annex A, huh?

    Why are not all Catholics and that for the most part. The social role of the Catholic Church is much stronger than that of most Protestant churches. Therefore, Catholic churches have been much more capable of maintaining a minimum of connections with large parts of society, while Protestant churches have not seen the drop in attendance but also membership. Catholic membership has been maintained, but attendance has dropped to approx.

    You are not supposed to confess their sins to a priest, the veil fell because when Jesus was resurrected from the dead.
    1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
    John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth and the life: no man comes to the Father except through me.

  7. Deep Thought says:

    Because it is difficult to go to confession. Making a confession is not easy. It is difficult to enter and sit down and say that everything we did in a loud voice, especially in front of another person. It is very uncomfortable.
      Satan does not want anyone to go to confession. Therefore, the reduction and all attacks against it. Confess our sins has been around since the beginning of the church, and that clearly has always been an oral confession of the involvement of another member of the church (now a priest). Rids the soul of sins, and is a necessity if you have mortal sin on your soul. Of course Satan wants everyone to hate religion, because then we all die with the sins of our soul.
      As for me, I try to go once a year. Sometimes two times depending on need. When I do there are few people there. It's really sad.

    People are wising and realize that when they reveal their secrets of the secrets used against them. The Catholic religion is simply a security hole for the government in our lives. It has always been the case. Organized religion and government are in it.

  9. GRobit62 says:

    Perhaps there is a lack of some Catholics in their faith or no doubt of great sin. Some Catholics are more devoted than others. I am sure of some one billion Catholics, only a small percentage of them follow the rules of the Vatican, letter by letter.

  10. Kevin says:

    The church is losing power because many people are leaving the church. As Christians are inevitably going to die, unless the right and "the Lord" comes.

  11. Frosty says:

    Because I do not think it is more important. Many Christians do not go to church more.

  12. Sage says:

    And any charge that would live in the confessional and spend all their time to do penance!
      You must be the most prolific posters on the fight against Christians here!

  13. Kaz says:

    I never understood the concept of an intermediary, even as a child

  14. bongerne says:

    Because it's just a pile of shit that the cult uses to keep tabs on the masses.

  15. talk360 says:

    because they are guilty and they are forgetting God

  16. The Pope says:

    It seems a trend with young Catholics. I think it just does not feel comfortable with that aspect of their faith.
