Hi Elizabeth
Many thanks for a very thoughtful post. .........................
............I also find it hypocritical for some people to be crooked as hell (e.g.
deviously avoiding paying legitimate taxes etc ) and then 'devoutedly' going
to confession/communion every weekend! What a farce!
RESPONSE:
Cornel, I too find it distasteful when people can swindle and squirrel away the ill gotten gains. These people assume that giving money to charity and doing other piece work for the needy, absolves their sins. I find it even more repugnant when these same people, will not get off their high horse but are able to pontificate freely to others. These people are conveniently in denial and assume that it is okay to defraud Institutions or rich people and reparations can be done though alms giving. This, as most Catholics should know, does not fulfill. Full reparations must be made before one can move forward!
