He said Catholics have more options for absolution, because church officials now say forgiveness can come through Mass or private prayer, instead of only through one-on-one confession.

Thanks to this mentality, sacrileges abound. I have a friend who wrongly believes that she gains absolution through her mere presence in the Novus Ordo liturgy and uses that as an excuse to approach Our Lord in Communion withouth confessing her mortal sins first. Does no one understand the destructive nature of novelties?
