I am sure Apple is behind this app 100%

What makes you so sure?

It's a third party app and I'm a 100% sure.

But Apple is offering (distributing) this application, right? So they are condoning it to some degree...

with 300,000 fluffy air extraction apps being submitted to Apple do you think they'll nitpick every single app to see if it's offensive?

Ephrem Augustine

I heard that there have been apps released to actually help a catholic make a good confession. like it gives you an examination of conscience. hopefully some people might find one of those by mistake instead.

Did you read this news Ephrem? It's from last month (18 Jan) and seems to be the one you're talking about. ;)

I think this whole thing wasn't that necessary. It was made in England, what do you expect...

Examination of Conscience and Commandments - a proper replacement that saves you from carrying other papers or sheets around. You can even write your sins on the iPhone and spell them out during Confession. Sanctifying technology!

«The firm said the app was developed with assistance from several priests and had been given the church's [b]imprimatur[/b] [by an american bishop]»

Who said the media doesn't get the Church?
