The article says that the Code of Canon Law says that the Sacrament of Penance is to only be performed in a confessional, except for a just cause. The relevant Code section says that the sacrament is only to be celebrated in a confessional or oratory, so I fixed the sentence in question. However, as I understand it, the "just" cause mentioned in the particular based on actual practice (so this sentence might benefit from being looked at by somebody with more expertise on this subject).

On a different topic, the article has two pictures of the "traditional" confessional but only one of the more "modern" style. There is considerable diversity in the architectural style of confessionals, but I am not sure of the prevalence of the "traditional" versus the "modern." I shall see if I can get a second picture of the more "modern" style; in the meantime, for purposes of balance, should one of the two photographs of "traditional" confessionals be deleted temporarily? 69.140.164.142 01:51, 9 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
