Now you have changed what you said before, which was an insincere attempt to "abuse the system" in your words. Just because your human nature is weak and conditioned by the force of your bad habits which means you will often continue to fail, that does not change the fact that God will forgive you again and again as long as you sincerely are willing to repent and begin again and again. But a sincere willingness to begin again presupposes that you have an intent to avoid what might easily lead you into sin. Not cancelling the porno channels in your cable package that you added or continuing to frequent area with prostitutes would be evidence that you were not sincerely making such an attempt. Christianity is a good deal. Why not take it.

I sincerely wish to get to the bottom of this confession business.

It was my understanding that once a priest absolves you after confession, then you are absolved, irregardless of whether you were truly sorry or just acting.

Besides, even if one were acting and was "good" from saturday evening after confession until after they accept the eucharist Sunday morning, what's the worst that can happen to them in the afterlife?

A bit of purgatory at most right?
