What if you jazzed up confession by using synonyms? Instead of:
"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned"
try
"Sorry, Daddy, I've been naughty"

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I got thrown-out of a "practice" confession when I was young and nearing the bogus "First Communion" event. We were to go through the whole routine with made-up sins (needed to save the real ones for the "real" confession in a few days), so I confessed that I'd recently committed suicide. Father Foley said, "Well, then you'd be dead". Me: "Yeah, that's the joke". He wasn't laughing. Off to Sister Kevin Marie's office for me. No sense of humor those Catholics.

I know this is just a joke, but the people who usually subscribe to religion would think it too fem, submissive (ironic), sexual, or be too homophobic to do that.

Am I missing something here? This is a site for people who are atheists and other varieties of disbelievers, so why are you asking questions about confessionals? Who cares what they say Catholic churches or what they do in confessionals unless it is molesting children, then it definitely is our concern! I can’t believe some of you have actually posted replies to this question.

@Jlangston70 I take your point. I may have gone off on one! It’ s just that the Catholic Church is a bit of a sore point with me. Too many paedo priests around here. Apologies ?
Life is much too long to be taken seriously.
@Jlangston70 No, sorry but I am fortunate to have personally escaped the clutches of RC dictrine. My grandfather keft the church and mbecame a freethinker, my father also identified as such and brought us up that way too. No but I do know someone who’s son was molested by a priest , it happened years ago but she only found out about it a short time before she died. I think it hastened her death.
Ummm it’s a joke. Not every post has to be deep or philosophical.
Not a good thing to say to a supposedly 'celibate priest', I don't think they carry or use condoms.
