Some Protestant churches are trying to make confession less forbidding, allowing people to shred their sins in paper shredders, for example.

How does that work?

It doesn't ... that's just the point. It's as bogus as igniting them on a barbeque. Only a priest can forgive sins - in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Not very well. Too many sins and you jam the shredder.
