"We walked over to the church and down the side aisle to the confessional. Sister James opened the door for me. "In you go," she said. "Make a good one now." I knelt with my face to the screen as we had been told to do and said, 'Bless me Father for i have sinned."

I think that this passage is important because it shows how we can relate to the character. Most of us know what the church is, and we know what going to the confessional is. Even though not all of us are of Christian or Catholic faith we still know what that is. I picked this because i feel that it is important to know that he goes to church, because this might be something that we mihgt be seeing later on in the book. As i read the text i asked myself what does this make me think of, and automatically i thought of Sundays when i go to church. Another question is what is an important change? Which would be that now according to his beliefs, his sins are forgivin and he is pure.

I thought that this passage was interesting. Jack does go to church but while he was making he confessions he was still lying. When it was time for Jack to confess his sins he couldn't think of any to say. When he got back out he went with Sister James and she gave him some cookies. While he was eating Sister James was talking to Jack about her sins then after when Jack had to go back to confess his sins and he used everything that Sister James was telling him. I think that Jack doesn't care if he sins in church even though it's the wrong thing to do.
