     The Lazarus Society in Cologne, Germany, recently released a
"Confession by computer" CD, with a menu of the 200 most-frequent
sins and a separate program to allow the particularly iniquitous to
customize the sins to which they will confess.  Appropriate penances
are prescribed, as well as a link to priests via the Internet.  The
German Conference of Bishops quickly denounced the disc.  And in
June, the Rev. David E. Courter of the Independent Catholic Church
International told an Associated Press reporter he would soon
celebrate Mass on-line and allow people to take communion via
computer by placing unleavened bread in front of their monitors.
