“Poppa don’t Preach”

…"Cause I'm having his baby," she sang. "Poppa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep" she lamented.

What's a Poppa to do? 

I know.

Get her an app for her iphone and let the Church handle things.

Not exactly 1-800-Confession, but close. What we've got here is an enterprising app developer and in consort with him, the very Rev. Daniel Scheidt, pastor of Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Mishawaka.

Do you have any idea where Mishawaka might me?

Sounds suspiciously like Mishagoss which in Yiddish means crazy or senseless behavior. 

But then again, at $1.99 per download, maybe not.

So here's how it works. First, you are asked some really pointed questions relating to your sins. A checking of boxes allows you to tick off what particular brand of sin you committed. What follows is a written list of contrition, a prayer for you to recite, and an amen to seal the deal.

They haven't figured out yet the Sacraments part, I'd like to think that is in the development stage. I wonder if one needs to have SKU's and bar codes to affect this next step.

I'm eager to be led into temptation right about now, secure in knowing that salvation could only be a mere click away.
