What do they call the acknowledgment of one's sins or wrongs in front of God in religion?
Correct answer: Confession

Why did they list penance as a wrong choice then use it to describe the Catholic ritual (which is reconciliation, by the way)?

Another form of religious power play. If you took religion from the equation most people would be leading fairly blameless lives and not having to beating themselves up over just being human.

So called "sins" vary wildly from person to person depending on whichever indoctrination they have endured. Not all religions/ beliefs/ mythologies/ faiths/ teachings/ ideals etc. involve a "confession". Why would you have to "confess" if your god sees everything, knows everything & is omnipotent? Guess some could confess to santa. To each their own. Think about it.

The only way to be at peace with God is to confess your sins, whichever your religion. Eye opening.
