Pretty much what GM said.
Keep in mind, he was over 18, That's a no-go.
The only thing anyone should be angry about is how much the media twists information to promote their own agendas.
Luke, GM isn't talking about Catholism. The Bible says that your good works, without righteousness, are like filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6 and a few other verses). And confessing to some dude in a closet is not the same as confessing to God. Jesus Christ was the mediator between God and Man. Now that the veil has been torn, we each have a straight line to God through prayer. Not through a priest. And Confession without Repentance is pointless. There is no amount of good works that will get you into heaven. The Bible pretty clearly states, Jesus is THE way, THE truth, and THE life, and no one comes to the Father, except through him. And Ephsians 2:8-10 8 "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
