Give me a break, some of the most often church goers are freaking casing the place.
Lots of money to be made on artifacts from churches.
Oh yes just confess your sin and all will be forgiven until the cops show up at the door.
I was taught that the confessional was to not be violated and it is up to killing and all kinds of nasty acts.
However take from the Church and the Priest will be on the phone before you get out the door.
Parish follower.
Forgive me Father I have sinned. I come to ask sanctuary here, the police are looking for me, I have killed 3 Nuns of our parish.
Son say 5,000 hail Mary's and your room is on the 3rd floor.
Father I have something else to confess, it was I who stole your wallet.
Sinner, best to run I am calling the police you horrid person, may you burn in Hell.
