do it count for goin to confession or do you need an absolution app for that?

DoES it count for goinG.....

Absolutely not. It's like a study guide for those waiting help. A priest will help with the rest. It's a great time to think about confession because most churches are having extra opportunities during the Lenten season.

Last time I went to confession, I confessed about "talking back to my mother, etc." and the priest asked now that I am older did I have more serious things to confess? I then told him about the identical twin sisters and the large farm animals!

That would be Jesus Christ. Pray to Him, and He will forgive you and give you eternal life. John 3:16

YOu could convert. Unlike the Jewish faith, Cathollcs are very open to converts

I'm not Catholic but I would love to confess to someone who could absolve me.

As usual I confessed to being challenged to be more patient with others and not so judgmental. Then I confessed my disappointment at the end of my fertility and how it made me have some hard feelings toward, I don't know, Life, God, Fate. Whatever.

But if you confess it, then you're absovled of it and have a clean soul -- until you commit that sin again, and go to confession again.

eh, you have to be sincerely regretful and sincerely wanting to change. And God will know the difference so don't try to pull the wool over anyone's eyes or then you will be a wolf.

but people re-commit the same sins a lot. It's human nature. God will forgive Catholics who go to confession and receive absolution

Absolutely that happens. But God knows the difference between mere words and sincerely wanting in your heart to change.

Doubt is not a sin, Jesus doubted his father in the garden before he was arrested.

+1 Doubt is fine. It's normal to doubt. It's only a sin if your doubt turns into disbelief.

Is your name Mary and is hers Edith?
