Is there a word to call the process where you confide your sins to the priest or something like that. I see those people going to small boxs where they talk to the father or something like that and they are seperated by a wire mesh or something like that.
Is there a word for this?

Original sentence: A driver's driving ability has nothing to do with his fighting ability.
