The main confession of the Bible is that Jesus is the son of God. That is the greatest confession ever made. We are to confess it with out mouth.

God wants us to confess things to him. He alone needs to hear what we need to confess.

A housewife takes a lover during the day, while her husband is at work. Unbeknownst to her, her 9 year old son, Johnny, was hiding in the Closet.
Her husband came home unexpectedly, so she hid her lover in the Closet; Johnny now has company.
Johnny: "Dark in here."
Man: "Yes it is."
Johnny: "I have a cricketball"
Man: "That's nice."
Johnny: "Want to buy it?"
Man: "No, thanks."
Johnny: "My dad's outside."
Man: "OK, how much?"
Johnny: "$250."
In the next few weeks, it happens again that Johnny and the mom's lover are in the closet together.
Johnny: "Dark in here."
Man: "Yes, it is."
Johnny: "I have a cricket bat"
Man: "How much?"
Johnny: "$750."
Man: "Fine."
A few days later, the father says to Johnny, "Grab your bat and ball and we will go outside and play." Johnny says, "I can't. I sold them." The father asks, "How much did you sell them for?" The son says, "$1,000." The father says, "That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that. That is way more than those two things cost. I'm going to take you to church and make you confess." They go to church and the father alerts the priest, and makes Johnny sit in the confession booth and closes the door.
Johnny says, "Dark in here."
The priest says, "Don't start that sh1t again"

what are you talking about? We are commanded to "confess". thats why Jesus breathed on his apostles (bishops) and told them receive the holy spirit, whos sins you shall forgive they are forgiven, whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.
this entails telling our sins, and those Christ enabled to "hear" our confessions. It is called the sacrament of reconcillation.

Why not?
All you would be doing is telling a senile old man that you watch porn every now and then...
Can't hurt I suppose.
