James O'Toole / The Rise and Fall of Confession in America (recording on YouTube/link below) networks.h-net.org/group/annou

James O'Toole / The Rise and Fall of Confession in America (recording on YouTube/link below) | H-Net
For generations, American Catholics went to confession regularly and in large numbers, admitting their sins to a priest and receiving God's forgiveness through him. The sacrament served as a distinctive marker of Catholic identity, shaping parishioners' views of their relationship to God, their neighbors, and the larger world. It gave them a clear moral framework for thinking about their own personal behavior. But starting in the 1970s, most Catholics abandoned confession altogether.
