Virtual Reality Confession Ends with Optional �Papal Hug Protocol�

After absolution, users can activate the Papal Hug Protocol, where a warm, low-resolution Pope avatar embraces you while chanting �Ego te absolvo� in surround sound. Pope Leo XIV insisted on including this �digital grace hug.� Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. One user cried. One accidentally triggered it in a horror game. Now considered spiritually therapeutic and slightly uncanny. Grace sometimes comes in pixels.
