Theological Concern
One of the quotes attributed to Jesus in Volume Two appears to contradict Catholic doctrine. Jesus is quoted as saying "I am here in the tabernacle. Come to Me here and I will forgive all sin. I will make you as pure as if you had never sinned. My children, all in heaven are awed at the scope of this promise." The Catechism of the Catholic Church states that the only ordinary way to obtain the forgiveness of grave sin is through the sacrament of reconciliation.

“There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one’s own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind.... Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn’t, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn’t have to; but if he didn’t want to he was sane and had to.”
—Joseph Heller (b. 1923)
