      unless your Iphone is blessed or sacred in some way i dont think an app can count as a confetion
  • But some media reports cast the app as a “virtual priest” for Catholics who do not have time for church

      this is just a way for advertisers to market the app to anyone

    technology is trying to replace all of the things people leave their houses for like confession or hang out or being active by making games and skype and confession apps

  • not intended to replace the confessional. Instead, it's designed to complement the act of confession, offering a "personal examination of conscience"

      i disagree because if you have this app for confession how would somebody use it to complement the real thing?

    This app allows people to confess right on there phones/ipods without actually going to church. This is an example of how technology is taking over.

      It shows that the Apple is similar to the feed company which get into the application

      The more function the iPad had, the more similar the iPad to the feed, which also shows that a lot of the technology is getting similar to the feed
  • Apple doesn't allow for individual discounts or free unlock codes within its apps - but either way, from a consumer perspective it's a raw deal.

  • It is just that I am becoming conscious of the fact that as we give in to technological innovation, we give up on traditional human nature.

      People depend on all types of technology. Even little things, to work up words, and directions. Its as if people can't follow a printed out map.
  • I believe it all started when I sat down to balance my checkbook (a depressing task as it is) and realized that I could not subtract without my calculator.

      People need to be able to use their own brains instead of relying on technology. Since the feed is implanted into Titus and his friends' brains, they can't use their own brain power to think.
  • The power of computers is immense these days and I am so scared that our lives are succumbing to the use of them, thus swallowing up the importance of the human mind and personal interaction with others.

      People are beginning to forget what the human mind is capable of doing. In feed they forget to just how easy it can be to think for yourself and have your own thoughts.

  • I believe this is absurd! What is next? Virtual sex? I will not even attempt to illustrate that!

      Yuck! Sounds like technology really is trying to replace every aspect of life. That last bit about virtual sex sounds ridiculous but with the way technology advances, there might be an app for that soon!
  • Always value the potential of the human mind. Always cherish the human touch, voice and face. And never let a computer replace a friend or a lover.

      I Agree! The way computers dominate aspects of our lives is taking away from how it was back in the day, when you could leave your couch without a cell phone, computer, ipod, calculator, navigation system, remote control prius keys etc. This makes me wonder, does technology really make life easier? Or does it make it harder to live without thousands of dollars worth of equipment everyday?

    Technology is replacing simple tasks and abilities that people should have.
