Forgiveness is possible in Christianity because there is One who forgives. In the modern secular religion, there is no singularity, but multiplicity of those whom you sin against. So, no matter who ask forgiveness from in the modern framework, there is always an offense; your sins will be continually before you. There will be no one to say, "I will remember your sins no more."

This also makes true repentance in the modern sense an avenue of insanity. That way is broad, and many are on it.

Part of the call of the Christian is go against what the world desires and what our body desires. The Christian life is about going against the grain, not with it. When the Church desires to align itself with the world, what does it have to offer? And for these Christians swept up with the world, where is their satisfaction? For their profits are only death, and in life they are hollow; if one could only see the end, why would they ever start on this path?
