Kim,

Thanks for the post! I'm glad there are lots of folks out there who love the Confession.

Just one small clarification: nobody knows the real "birthday" of the Confession. It was sometime in 1561, but we don't know the exact date. It was probably written early in the year sometime, probably printed on May 25, and thrown over the castle wall (making its public appearance) on November 1. I just happened to pick yesterday to write the post.
