#1 While I certainly have my issues with my Pope in secular matters, there may be less here than meets the eye.

Bishops in many dioceses have pushed down this power to local priests for many years.

There is an upside - this morning at work two of my non-Catholic co-workers approached me and asked about the sacrament of confession. I am not a skilled commentator on all things Catholic but we then touched on moral sin, communion and penance. They were quite moved, as was I, and are now looking deeper into the faith.

God bless us all.
