One Per Cent: Forgiveness via iPhone: Church approves confession app

One Per Cent: Forgiveness via iPhone: Church approves confession app: "Selling for $1.99, 'Confession: A Roman Catholic App' was developed as an aid 'for those who frequent the sacrament and those who wish to return,' according to Little iApps, the firm behind the idea. Its makers insist it is not a replacement for confessing in person with a priest, but instead helps to keep track of all the evil things you have done since the last time you confessed by ticking off some of the most common failings. Deviants get the opportunity to add their own, bespoke, sins as they go."
