A new app has recently been released in Apple's App Store. It's not the latest game craze. It's not an awesome utility app that will change the way we do business overseas. It is, however, religious.
"Confession: A Roman Catholic app" is thought to be the first to be approved by a church authority. It walks Catholics through the sacrament and contains what the company behind the program describes as a "personalized examination of conscience for each user."
My first thoughts upon reading this was something along the lines of "really? is this even necessary? But apparently Pope Benedict XVI put an emphasis on the importance of Christianity in this digital age.
So I'm interested in different people's opinions on this. I'm not a Catholic, so personally I'm not a big fan of the need for cerimonial confessions in the first place. And normally I would love new apps like this that allow things that used to be only done in person to be accomplished on the go. But does this take the action of confessing sins to far? This is proof that our world is truly become digitalized.
