Words of wisdom that Christians rarely seem to be able to comprehend. Atonement means little when you are supposed to be spreading the word of your god and all you are doing is nullifying the words by your actions. Especially when you weaken the explanation by stating that it's all ok because you confess to an intangible entity your sins thus making them not sins any longer. Makes the whole thing really hollow.
