Dace walks into church
He goes straight to the confession box and says "forgive me father for I have sinned" he goes onto talk about how he had sex with young boys.
I was basically wondering what a catholic priest would do in that situation? As a "catholic" ive been to confession a couple of times (I think I was drunk once) and just mumbled on about lieing and stuff.
Anyone know if the priest can go to the police? Or wether they have to remain silent and can bear no opinion on what they hear?

Oh my god.
As regards your question, they're not supposed to but I don't think there's a law against it. Also why were you drunk

Re: Dace walks into church
Well it was over the xmas period a year or so back, I was pissed for much of the holidays and my family dragged me to church so I thought it would be cool if i did confession. I also kissed a girl in church twice! Once in sunday school when I was like 9 (that wasnt really a kiss though more a peck) and once when I was with my longterm girlfriend (no one saw us though and it was a CofE church so it didnt really matter)
Also what would you do?
I think I would go to the police for stuff like that, stuff like "I robbed a bank" I couldnt care less but if it was "I murdered my wife" or "shagged a 11 yr old" Id cycle down to the police station.

Re: Dace walks into church
me and my girlfriend were considering having sex in Bergamo Cathedral, noone was around and we were both really horny for some reason...
Ended up just having a kiss and grope but I've kissed girls in shit loads of churches. Is it really a big issue?
also, what kind of idiot murders their wife or shags 11 yr olds then goes and tells someone about it?

Re: Dace walks into church
In the medical profession you would have to report them if harm has come to a third party or you believe they are a danger to themselves or others.
Fk knows what a priest would do in that situation though.

If you go to the police and tell them
'I robbed a bank'
'I murdered my wife'
'I shagged an 11yr old'
I think whether or not a priest will then tell them if you got the chance to go to church is, perhaps, a moot point...?

I think pig meant that if he were a priest and someone confessed to him that they'd done one of them, then he'd go straight to the police and spill

"We all do that" would the priest had replied. Then they would share experiences in sex0ring young boys and be good friends.

The priest can't tell anyone, ever.

Re: Dace walks into church
In the state of California evidence code section 1033 says that a "penitent" has the privilege keep a clergyman from disclosing any "penitential communication".
This is to help penitents stay out of the penitentiary.
Evidence code section 1034 says that a "member of the clergy" has the privilege not to disclose "penitential communications."
Thus the law cannot make either one talk about it.
However, it is my understanding that a Catholic priest who went to the police with such information, unless specifically authorized by the person confessing, would be considered to have violated the sanctity of the sacrament of confession. As such, they could be defrocked.
However, as Zhukov pointed out, it would probably only lead to swaping information on techniques.

they're not obliged to keep it secret is the US.
They're protected from being compelled to reveal it.
There is a difference.

Just pray (ho ho) that it wasn't Father Dowling that you were confessing to!

Father Dowling?
"There's a nice hard name."
"Talk about woodies."
"I bet he's been inserted into a few tight holes"
etc...
who is he?

That's true, but then nothing in the known universe is.
Except maybe House, but it hasn't been on long enough to say for sure

I'm sure I used to think she was though I never watched it much. That wikipedia photo though is horrible so maybe not.
Also posting to agree with the Diagnosis Murder loving
