Since My Last Confession is a funny, irreverent faith journey by a gay Catholic pursuing his Archbishop in the style of Michael Moore's Roger & Me. Scott Pomfret, federal prosecutor and practicing Catholic struggles to reconcile faith with the Church's attacks on gay marriage, gay adoption, gay seminarians, Capri pants, innate style, and anything else remotely homosexual. Convinced that a meeting with the Archbishop would foster homo-Catholic rapprochement and world peace, Pomfret pursues the prelate from pulpit to Chancery to state funeral -- and confronts a hardcore atheist boyfriend and a pack of motorcycle lesbians, gay priests, flaming friars, pious prelates, would-be Opus Dei homosexual monks, three "Hale" Marys, Father McSlutty, and homicidal orthodox bloggers along the way. From a firsthand account of a 1970s SWAT team raid of a gay Mass to "Surefire Ways to Recognize a Gay Catholic" to "The Ten Commandments of Reading Gay Porn" to Harry Potter's Satanism, Confession wrestles with faith, doubt, sex, love, and priestly undergarments.
