My sister, seeking to get back to G-d, joined a R. Catholic church in Nebraska. She started working for the church as well, in their offices. She soon learned that the priest over the church held group confession. She questioned this and he said that his confession sessions were more like group therapy, because he could not forgive sins: only Jesus, he said, could do that. He also said there is only one Mediator between G-d and people, and that one Mediator is, he said, Jesus.
His church grew until they needed a new one to hold enough services for all the people. She kept working for them. The church was completed and when she went to see the new building, there was no statuary. She asked why. He answered, but I don't remember what he said.
The first Sunday, the church was crowded. That Monday, she went to work. He wasn't there. No one knew where he was. He was not seen there again, and no one ever knew where he went. She worked there a while then quit, going, as well, to a different church, where she continues to this day.
