I suggest an idea where a person could go to his local priest/rabbi/pastor, and give an outline of the wrong he plans on committing. Prepenting may allow the person to actually confess to less than he actually plans on doing. Volume discounts should also be available.

       Didn't the church already do this? It was called indulgences, or something like that.

       I think the link makes this baked. Whether or not that will make debbie happy remains to be seen.   

       Edit: Would that be the former Debbie Pierce of San Diego? If so, you lucky dog -

       Yup, baked, I'm afrtaid. But Where can I find a church that still sells them?
