Byzantine Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I went to confession today. As I mentioned something I had done as a freshman, I had to hold back a small laugh. I'm not sure why. I think it might just be the word freshman. At any rate, I'm pretty sure I didn't think the sin was funny. Also, I meant to say/ask something, but I decided to save it for later. Even had it on my list. Frankly, I'm not sure it was a sin. Do either of these sound like sacrilege was committed in Confession, or am I just being scrupulous?

cappie Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 mortal sins cannot be done "accidentally." A person who commits a mortal sin is one who knows that their sin is wrong, but still deliberately commits the sin anyway. This means that mortal sins are "premeditated" by the sinner and thus are truly a rejection of God’s law and love. So there was no sacrilege Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
