And as for my graceful state - don't think you're getting my butt into a confessional! My sins are between me and God, thank you very much! Crazy Catholics...

A lot of the Lutherans (ELCA) that I know feel that they don't need confession, as God already knows what they have done. Furthermore, during the silent reflection during communion, they hash it out with him.
