Youth pastor calling the marshals man. Cold.
Would Jesus narc on you? Friend, he would not. Mostly because he didn't exist but still. As a character that is not consistent.
Jesus wouldn't narc on you, but he might tell you to surrender yourself to police. no murder is one of the Ten Commandments. this is how Catholic confession works, at least (I am not Catholic.)
I suspect the kid consented to the pastor calling the marshals, after deciding to turn himself in. otherwise how would they know where to find him that quickly?
I'm Catholic. When I was a kid I had to go to confessional and like most Catholic kids we just made shit up cause I mean come on, no kid is keeping tally of all the stuff they've done. So we'd just lie to the priest and try to one up each other with "stuff we did". The priest never told our parents or teachers.
What's the most unhinged confession you and your friends did?
one of my friends made up a wild story about encasing his sisters pet hamster in concrete after she found his porn stash and told his parents. He didn't have a sister, he didn't even have a pet hamster.
the one I remember I told was that I stole $100 from my moms purse and used it to buy pogs and cigarettes and beer. I was 10.
