This is a fundamental flaw with current Christianity and most religions as a whole.

If an arbitrary third party absolves your sins then you don't feel an emotional need to own your wrongs.

The above assuming the person isn't a psychopath in the first place.

Most of my picks have been mentioned already, but I had a blast with Mullet Madjack. A tongue in cheek riff on 80s anime in a boomer shooter where you have 10 seconds to live, but each enemy kill gives you 2 more seconds of life.

This was the top comment for me, and I thought it wasn't going to be too bad.

Wow there are some hot takes down there.
