I just got to thinking about this and I'm wondering something. Why is it, that in certain faiths and denominations, it is a priest or other form of clergy that does the forgiveness of sins? I guess this would most likely go towards Catholics since I know for a fact that they do this. Why does a person have to go to a priest to have to confess their sins and ask forgiveness? Why can't they just ask directly of God themselves? Why is a middleman necessary?
I can understand going to a clergy person for guidance and counseling when you are at a loss in your life, especially spiritually. However, why treat the clery person as a middleman between believer and God?
Is confession/forgiveness through a priest really necessary?
