Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a shocking exposÃÂ of the inner workings of the Roman Catholic Church in the 18th century, as experienced by a former priest who converted to Protestantism. The author, a Spaniard who fled his homeland for fear of persecution, unveils the secrets of auricular confession, the practice of revealing one's sins to a priest. The book delves into the intricate details of the confessional process, highlighting the power dynamics between priests and penitents. Through numerous accounts of private confessions, the author exposes the manipulative tactics employed by priests, their often-questionable motives, and the potential for abuse within the confessional. The author's firsthand experience as a priest in Spain, coupled with his insider knowledge of Catholic doctrine and practice, lends a unique and chilling authenticity to his account. He reveals the hypocrisy and corruption that he witnessed within the church, a corruption that extended to the highest levels, even affecting the Pope himself. The book serves as a powerful indictment of the abuses of power and the theological inconsistencies inherent in the Catholic faith, as understood by the author.
