(6,853 posts)13. Forgiveness
Forgiveness is only bestowed upon someone who has ceased their evil actions and has repented and apologized for their sins.
These people have done neither. The opposite, they are proud to be called deplorable.
Those who can be saved will protest and/or leave their paid employment-its a tough choice, but they must make a choice. Those who choose to stay deserve no forgiveness, they knowingly inflict suffering on others for a paycheck.
When we become ideological slaves to a paycheck then the streets become violent.

Forgiveness is for health of forgiver. Person forgiven need not know & can still be tried & jailed.
