True. Maybe it's not necessarily right for the Church to have those guidelines.

Is there a point to such torture?

I know for sure the Catholic Church forgives sinners. (people who happen to change their minds)

Maybe it's not necessarily right for the Church to have those guidelines.

Following the examples of Christ, the Apostles and St. Paul isn't right? That's absurd. I suppose next you'll be suggesting that the Church do away with the Ten Commandments.

Is there a point to such torture?

Only people who allow their genitals to dictate the way they live their lives consider it torture.
