New California Bill Would Mandate Clergy Break Seal of Confession to Report Child Abuse 06/07/19 (Fri) 06:25:28 d40084 No.5749

>A California bill would end the exemption for clergy from a state law that mandates those who have knowledge of child sex abuse to report it to authorities, even if heard in confession.

>The bill passed in the state Senate on May 23rd in a 30-4 vote, with 4 senators not voting. The vote was largely along party lines, with 27 Democrats and 3 Republicans voting in favor, while 4 Republicans voted against. The 4 senators not voting included 3 Republicans and 1 Democrat.

>Currently in the state of California, doctors, psychiatrists, therapists, and others are considered “mandated child abuse and neglect reporters” and are legally obligated to break client privilege and report suspected child abuse and neglect, without exception. Members of the clergy also fall under this category, but an exception is given if knowledge is obtained during penitential communication, or confession.

Good. Time to end pedos protecting pedos and other criminal scum. Itd be one thing if its minor or innocuous stuff like

>I accidentally ran a red light

>I drank underage

>etc

But overall this nonsense is used as a means of protecting true scum who any real Christian would be legitamized for hanging publicly.

<REMINDER: cucktholics routinely protect criminals who commit heinous acts of all forms and kinds

<they do not care about justice at all

You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the reason certain professions have confidentiality. A child facing abuse will be more hesitant to consult a doctor or pastor for help if the professional is going to report, because the child might be gaslit or fear physical retaliation from the abuser if he's caught, or whatever reason. There's also delicate situations where the abuser is mental and conflicted, and the immediate involvement of police might be worse for the victims (stretch).

If the papists think they have an obligation to not report child abuse that's wrong, but we aren't fixing the situation by compelling by state force the reports.

Or maybe you have the misunderstanding.

>individual confesses to heinous act(s)

>but because no one is currently being harmed, or will be harmed, victimless crime its A-okay

Like a murderer who's vague on details but it happened years back, or a child molester who claims to have be "clean" for over forty years, or a drug addict whose peddling the stuff

<"even if heard in confession."

<its called mandatory reporting, if you know a crime has/is occuring you MUST report

<finally mandating pedo-protectors to do it, and then expanding further to "confession" is a good thing

<too many cucktholic criminals and clergy use the "sacred" seal of confession so hocus pocus they can be "forgiven" and walk off guilty free from their crimes

<vain traditions of men do not absolve sin

<if they truly sought forgiveness theyd confess at a police station

I fully understand the crux of this nonsense, and I hope and pray it goes Federal. Let the scumbags whine.

I'm not saying it's okay, I'm saying that state compulsion is a bad idea. I'm not in favor of bars either but I don't want the state retrying prohibition.

This is actually a good thing from a Catholic point of view because it will flush out all the apostates and homosexuals in the priesthood. None of them are going to risk going to jail to preserve the seal of confession.

A single child rapist running around freely is not worth the seal of confession. I know that the Catholic church likes to protect their pedophiles, but I'm glad that the state will finally intervene because the Cathofags obviously won't.

But if a child rapist is confessing his sins, it means he feels remorseful and wants to stop, and is open to things like therapy and turning himself in.

Do people really think that taking away the opportunity to remorsefully talk about your misdeeds is actually going to help prevent misdeeds?

There are prison chaplains for that.
