How would they know who voted for whom?

I think it was the bit where a supporter of such policies would suffer come judgement day. So confession would be the only option. It would be a test of ones religious views i guess.

True

However, as I understand it, that which is confessed is forgiven and cannot be used as a basis for with-holding communion. Admitedly, speaking as a Pagan, I may be incorrect, so I will bow to those with superior knowledge in such matters, or (if J&#39;Pol is available), in all matters. B)

well that was the point...one must confess to have communion. It isn&#39;t just a cofession that gets forgiveness...one has to be remorseful.
