CyberConfession

From CNN.com:

(CNN) — Bless me father for I have sinned. It has been 300 tweets since my last confession.

Whether you’ve been “borrowing” free Wi-Fi or coveting your neighbor’s avatar — or, heaven forbid, something worse — a new mobile app is designed to help you atone for it.

Lame tech jokes aside, the makers of “Confession: A Roman Catholic App” say their software is seriously designed to help believers with the sacrament, and to help those who have left the church take a digital step back home.

Worry not, faithful Catholics: The $1.99 application, for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, is not intended to replace the confessional. Instead, it’s designed to complement the act of confession, offering a “personal examination of conscience” (password-protected, of course) and a step-by-step guide to sin-confessing.

The app provides suggested acts of contrition and the “ability to add sins not listed in standard examination of conscience.”

“Our desire is to invite Catholics to engage in their faith through digital technology,” said Patrick Leinen, co-founder of Little iApps, developer of the Confession app.

And this one’s got the church’s seal of approval.
