BUT, IF you are a christian, and believe in the "blood of Jesus", forgiveness, then you would have to accept that he would be forgiven of this~~washed clean. Maybe not by the eyes and ears of man, but by God. SO, as a christian, knowing that he is forgiven by God, does that mean I (you), believing christian, should aslo forgive, accept he's been "forgiven" and give him a new chance at life?
Just curious is all
Find religion in quotes means those that say they've found it in order to lessen a sentance or clean up outwardly not internally. They talk the talk.
They've done studies on that particular topic. This is what I am talking about.

Sure, I'll answer that. I don't subscribe to that philosophy but if someone does then they can find more forgiveness in their hearts then I.
