Okay I don’t know what is your issue pal but first read before you reply.
Because I claimed that Catholics lied to themselves and others about being good people, not perfect just good. One can consider himself good but that doesn’t mean he is perfect nor that he thinks that of himself.
And last time I checked one can go to church lie to the Padre about your actions tell yourself you are a good catholic and still whine and complain about the rest of the world on the way back home. What you’ve never heard anyone claim he is a good person and everyone else is wrong?
I had the impression that during confession you respond by your own individual actions not the ones of the group you are part of.
You see that’s what I said, not that we are perfect, nor that our culture is flawless what I said (and I am gonna repeat again hoping this time you get it right) Is that Catholics don’t act according to the commandments of their church but most of them when they step up during confession they lie about it telling themselves they(and when I mean they I refer to the person that is confessing) are good people not perfect just good.
