    Requested, sure. My point being that it’s only a heretical minority of Pharisees, liars and hypocrites who believe that forgiveness will be granted if they only talk the talk and don’t walk the walk.

      No that’s not correct at all. A large amount of protestant churches have the doctrine that salvation is through grace alone and not works. That was a big party of the Catholic protestant split. If you’re Catholic and disagree that’s fine, but it’s untrue to say that it is a fringe opinion.
