How Many Women Are Made to Do What They Did by Their Confirmor?
I recently reread an excellent book by Tom Holland and he did sort of biographical sketches throughout church history. They talked about a woman named Elizabeth of Hungary who was horrifically abused by her confessor Conrad of Magda Berg. She sets this standard of piety that literally kills her at the age of 24. When you read through these books, when you listen to some of the women who teach this stuff, I just can't help but think, what is your home life like?
