The Confessional...FOR ALL GOOD CATHOLICS
« on: November 30, 2009, 04:32:21 AM »
A guy goes into the confessional box.

He finds on one wall Fully equipped bar with Guinness on tap.

On the other wall is a Dazzling array of the finest Cuban cigars.

Then the priest comes in.



"Father, forgive me, for it's been a very long time since I've been to Confession,
But I must first admit that the confessional box is much more inviting these days."



The priest replies

"Get out. You're on my side."

Ah yes, Purgatory. That mythical place between Heaven and Hell, where the screwup's family can cross the palms of the priests with a little cash, (indulgences), and bypass Christ right into the Pearly Gates.

Your understanding of the concept of Purgatory could benefit by a short amount of study.  Regardless of it's relevance to a protestant, you could at least look into the theology behind it before slamming the church and it's practitioners.

Christians do a good job of fighting among themselves, and often destroy the church in the process.

We need to find common ground, as all christian churches are under attack.
