Guest Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 So what percent of catholics go to confession ? How many go to mass every week ? How many are probally in mortal sin ? How many receive the Body and Blood without examining their concience ? (sp ? ) Why did Jesus talk about hell so much ? What if you died right now where would you go ? If you are in mortal sin reading this are you scared ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithLuin Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I went to confession on Sunday, and mass Sunday-Monday-Tuesday. So, just based on the questions in the OP, I'm in good shape....but...I'm not necessarily ready to meet my Maker, either. I think Purgatory would be a given, because I'm someone who [i]knows better[/i] - I'm decently well educated in my faith and am not making careless mistakes. It's more...deliberate obduracy that I have to confess. So, to whom much is given, much is expected and all of that. I am not really [i]scared[/i] of hell. I mean, sure, in the same way I'm scared of the dark. It's scary. But I don't...I don't actively dread it, I guess. I find it too difficult to picture myself totally cut off from God to even imagine what hell is like. And, at the end of the day...I trust Jesus' judgments, whatever they might be.

Guest Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Deliberate obduracy I had to look that up in the dictionary. I suffer with that too. Good luck and Godbless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
