the concept of confession of sins is absolutely correct, yet the public act of confession it's absolutely wrong.
the confession of sins is between the person and God. In my particular case as catholic I confess my sins to a priest, but this priest has to be a person I know and I trust. Not just any random priest. Just to be clear and answer a question that will eminently come: The priest does not forgives the sin because God is the only one who forgives, but it's visual rite of something that happens in the spiritual world. In my personal life I always go to confession for the advice I can get. |

Since the term "sin" is a word that is used and confined within religious doctrine, my personal idea of sin is probably different from the Christian idea of sin.
For me, it is not disobedience of the all mighty God, but a lack of self discipline. That would be my own "sin" and it is a sin against myself. I know there are many things I need to do and I put them off. Procrastination might be a sin in my holy book, and I am guilty of it. As for confessing sins in public, I see nothing wrong with that as I am dedicated to honesty and truth. Sure, they are personal but I am not much different than anyone else and I don't feel that I have a lot to hide or be ashamed of. Now if I were a serial killer, I might think twice about it. |

Confess what?
What others reguard as a sin....I view as a learning experience. Got no apologies for the good or bad things I have or have not done. Without the random acts of stupidity that I used to pull off (sin)...I would have no point of context for trying to better myself. Whenever I screwed up...I learned from my mistakes and don't repeat them. Pretty sure that an all powerful God would have no use for one of my apologies. |
