"At the end of these days of Spiritual Exercises, I would like to give a heartfelt thanks to you, your Eminence, for your spiritual guidance, which has been offered with such theological competence and spiritual depth. From my angle of vision, I have been able to see, on the wall of the Chapel, the image of Jesus kneeling before St Peter in order to wash his feet. Through your meditations, this image has spoken to me. I have recognized that precisely here, in this attitude, in this act of extreme humility, the new priesthood of Jesus is realized. It is realized in his act of solidarity with us, with our weaknesses, our suffering, and our temptations, even to the point of death. I have also seen the red vestments of Jesus with new eyes that speak to me of his blood. You, worthy Cardinal, have taught us that the blood of Jesus was, on account of his prayer, "oxygenated" by the Holy Spirit. In this way, it has become the power of resurrection and the source of life for us". POPE BENEDICT XVI

A. Keith Thompson, Robert Natanek, Patrick Parkinson, Monica Doumit, Mario Ferrante, Mark Hill QC, Christopher Grout, Andreas Henriksen Aarflot, Stephen Farrell, Gregory Zubacz, Giorgio Morelli and Eric Lieberman\nThis collection by editors Mark Hill QC and Keith Thompson raises many questions about recent challenges to religious confession privilege whether through legislative enactment or otherwise. Is confessional practice protected by international human rights instruments and domestic constitutional norms? Is there a social benefit from sinners using confession as a means of reformation of character? How do we decide which confidences should be protected by law? Are children and the vulnerable any better protected by making inroads into the doctrinal practice of confession? 
While these questions are not all answered here, the different US, European and Australian contexts enable wider comparative insights not always considered within a single jurisdiction. While religious confession privilege law has evolved differently in countries with established churches, it seems that the need to accommodate other religions has led to increased tolerance of diverse belief and practice. There are also some surprises here - including the confessional nature of auditing practice in Scientology and that, until recently, it was a criminal offence in Norway and Sweden for a religious minister to disclose confidences. 
As former Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams says in the Foreword, no community of faith can exist without a foundation of trust. That bond is shattered when religious authorities betray trust, such as by physical or mental abuse, but confession requires confidences to be maintained for the sacrament of penance to be meaningful. This volume seeks to stimulate discussion and to inform a deeper understanding of this tangled and urgent issue.

Wind turbines kill wildlife, damage human health, reduce the area of land for farming and dumping of turbine blades and solar panels add extremely dangerous toxins to soil and water.\nCosts and unreliability of green energy have forced people in Western countries to decide whether to eat or freeze. Collapse of green energy systems have resulted in hundreds of deaths.\nGreens object to cheap reliable coal, gas and nuclear energy. The consequences of their forest management policies result in the deaths of billions of trees, wildlife and humans and property destruction.\nHumans in poor countries are kept in eternal poverty without coal-fired electricity and die young.\nGreens support black child slavery and clear felling of tropical forest to support EVs, incendiary batteries and promote tried and failed energy systems.\nGreen policies destroy economies, freedom and sovereignty. Net Zero means eye-watering debt, no employment, no travel, no reliable food and blissful socialist happiness with no possessions.
