"Forgive Me iphone for I Have Sinned..."
Don't have enough time to make it into church to confess your sins? Don't worry the Catholic Church has go you covered. You can wipe your slate clean with Confession: A Roman Catholic App, available through iTunes for $1.99.
The Catholic Church has said this app doesn't take the place of traditional confession. The app is more is to promote Catholics to engage in their faith through technology. They feel this app will be very useful for everyone and may even bring people back into the Catholic Church.
The app leads you through an "Examination of Conscience" to help you figure out what your real sins are with "sinful suggestions."
The app customizes each user's list of sins and is password protected for privacy. Once confess, your sins are wiped away, so you don't have to fear of your sins being on the Internet.
I think this app says a lot about The Catholic church trying to get in touch with the new technology generation. I think the app is a good idea for the church. However, I don't know if I would want absolution from my phone.
