When Catholics go to confession they have to talk about their greatest failures and weaknesses and because of that the Church has made it a mortal sin for a priest to ever share anything he's heard in confession. A priest who breaks the seal of the confessional is automatically excommunicated.
Demanding that a priest go against the 2000 year old teaching of his faith is no different than demanding that a Muslim Iman or an Orthodox Jewish Rabbi eat pork.
What's really interesting is that Democrats agree that if a lawyer knows his client raped a child that lawyer not only doesn't have to tell anyone but Democrats encourage him to do his best, using every legal technicality that leftist judges have introduced, to get the rapist off.
The whole bill won't help because child rapists don't go to confession; it's a situation that simply hasn't happened.
But even if it would help demanding that lawyers rat on their clients would be far more effective yet Democrats want to let lawyers help child rapists get off while forcing Catholic priests to go against their faith.
It's also very important to note that if SB 360 becomes law then a precedent will be established that the government can force people to go against their deeply held religious beliefs if the Democrats don't share those beliefs.
While SB 360 applies to a limited set of circumstances there is nothing to stop the Democrats eventually demanding priests to report whatever Democrats want reported.
This is just one more sign of the war that Democrats are waging against people of faith.
