The Priest, the Woman, and the Confessional is a controversial book written by Father Chiniquy, a former Roman Catholic priest who converted to Protestantism. In this book, he exposes the alleged abuses and dangers of the confessional system in the Roman Catholic Church. He argues that the confessional is a tool of manipulation and control used by priests to exploit vulnerable women and children. He shares his own experiences as a priest and his interactions with women who confided in him about their personal lives. He also discusses the history of the confessional and its evolution over time. The book is a scathing critique of the Roman Catholic Church and its practices, and it has been both praised and criticized for its bold claims and controversial subject matter.A compelling exploration of the relationship between the Catholic priest, women, and confession, written by one of the most conspicuous champions of Protestantism. Contents: the struggle before the surrender of womanly self respect in the confessional; auricular confession: a deep pit of perdition for the priest; a confessional is the modern Sodom; how the vow of celibacy of priests is made easy by auricular confession; a highly-educated and refined woman in the confessional-what becomes of her after unconditional surrender-her irreparable ruin; auricular confession destroys all the sacred ties of marriage and human society; should auricular confession be tolerated among civilized nations; does auricular confession bring peace to the soul; the dogma of auricular confession a sacrilegious impostor; God compels the church of Rome to confess the abominations or auricular confession.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
