But… the absence of confessionals leaves Cardinal Cobo very much affected, as without that he would have come across very well. Because this is not a trivial matter but what appears to be a very notable breach in his Catholic conscience regarding the sacrament of Penance. And it gravely affects his conscience concerning the sacrament of the Eucharist.
So, tell me what remains of religion without confession and with communion in sin. And what remains of the cardinal archbishop of Madrid.
