I know of someone who carries around loads of guilt because they never resolved issues with a parent who is now dead. It can't ever be resolved. Does that mean they're going to hell because they never made restitution? At some point you have to trust God's mercy, and don't kill yourself trying to deserve it.
Rational thinking people don't have sex with children. So is it a stretch that they would confess it to someone? I just read about one that was bragging online and that was how he got caught.
