The monsignor seems to be implying that priests either do not use computers to communicate via emails or that the Catholic Church prohibits priests from using emails. Confession by email is a form of communication: there is a recipient and a sender. The recipient would be the priest in this case, and the sender would be the person confessing. How can that form of communication not be considered a person-to-person dialogue? Are priests, bishops and monsignors that unaware about email technology? Confessing directly to priests makes me very uncomfortable specially with many of the Philippine churches now having no more confessional box. Confession should be a private thing, not in full view of other people on queue waiting for their turn to confess. That makes me doubly uncomfortable. What say you, folks? |
