E-confessions. 09.06.2011.

Roman Catholic bishops have approved a new iphone app. that allows users to to make confessions with a virtual priest over the internet.

'Confessions: a Roman catholic App.' on sale this week offers 'a personalized examination of conscience for each user.' Sins are listed by misdeed and omission. A button lists 'customary sins' gluttony, envy, greed, etc. Each sin is check-boxed. A 'next' command brings up one of the Acts of Contrition. Users then press 'Receive Absolution and respond Amen' before going to 'Finish.' A spiritual quote then comes up.

Forgive me father

for coveting my neighbour's

phone, deleting sins.



Father Ted, eat your

heart out. Virtual Churches,

priests, sins are here now!



I can say ten Hail

Marys, watch Babe Station and

shop at the same time.
