Here's my suggestion for genuine conservatives:

Confiteor Deo omnipotenti, et vobis fratres,
quia peccavi nimis cogitatione, verbo, opere et omissione:
mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
Ideo precor beatam Mariam semper Virginem, omnes Angelos et Sanctos, et vos, fratres,
orare pro me ad Dominum Deum nostrum.

ways while professing a belief in a god, I think repeating those words would be meaningless to them.

Oh, they could repeat them. They simply wouldn't follow them. Or believe them. Or mean them.

OK, that's Anglican and not Catholic, but it will do - However, confessing sins under any rubric assumes they actually think they sinned.
