Isn't confession and repentance and extremely important part of Christianity

If it's not important and doesn't do anyone any good then why would God think it's important?

If your intent is to state that emotional and psychological harm can be healed by apologies, then you really are a nitwit.
Apologies are not for the victim, they are for the perpetrator to feel better. Even in Catholicism this is true. You don't confess to a priest because you are trying to make the victims of your actions feel better. You do it for some personal gain like cleansing your "soul".

Didn't help Charlie Rose. He gone from CBS and PBS.
Been so many liberals waging war on women, I didn't even notice Jeffrey Tambor quit his Amazon show as a preemptive strike to avoid being fired.

There were so many ways available to you to respond to the OP that didn't require you being a prick.
That said, a forced apology for the sake of optics is usually a meaningless gesture.

It's kinda like Hillary saying "I take responsibility for losing the election" and then presents a laundry list of people whose fault it was for her losing.

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, and are probably completely clueless as to what a relationship with God involves, much less judge someone else as to whether they stand with him or not

FWIW I don’t think Franken did anything that warrants an apology
Again, you are speaking from a position of moral indifference. Tell you what, let Al Franken take a picture with your mother or wife or daughter, cupping their breasts while they struggle to move his hands and object.
You think he deserves to apologize to someone now? Go and stutter somewhere

that's not what i'm saying. what i'm saying is condolences or sympathy via the expression of "i am praying for you" is received by liberals with "prayers don't bring back the dead or solve the problem. go frick yourself"
while "i'm sorry" (and a shitty one at that) for sexual harassment is the difference between senator franken and ex senator franken...even though by the same standard, it does not undo the wrong committed nor does it prevent another wrong from being committed. it does...nothing.
i'm applying someone else's standard of logic to point out their hypocrisy. i'm not saying apologies have no value (like ethan is stupid enough to take away) nor am i saying your prayers are worthless...that's the standard from which i'm asking a question about the apology tour. a question which is sure to trigger anyone who hates being confronted with the realization that they're entirely full of shite (not you)

You’re right, apologies in this sense often mean little to the victim. There must be actions to reinforce the verbal apology. To me, an apology should be looked at simply as an admittal of guilt. That’s the first step. Has Weinstein apologized at all yet? Hell Cosby still denies everything.

Maybe you're too stupid to understand the OP. We're not talking about 6-year-olds stealing a piece of bubble gum in the check out isle at the county store.

If you want to argue against something, it's best to understand what you're arguing against.
Many atheists are pretty knowledgeable in religion.

no need to call him stupid though. i'm enjoying watching him. he has no rebuttal, a straw man, and nothing but insults. he's triggered.

34 (I think) SNL workers signed a letter defending him. I was honestly shocked to see this. Amazing how one sided people are when it comes to issues like this involving politicians. Just pathetic.

apology should be looked at simply as an admittal of guilt.
in fact many people deny the accusations but apologize for whatever may have caused their misinterpretation...then there's the issue of whether an apology is an apology.
"i regret putting such a high number on it" was Hillary Clinton's apology for her deplorables comment...it was reported as an apology, but that's not an apology.
