Christians are under no obligation to forgive capital criminals (murderers and rapists). God never intended us to be idiots. The Death Penalty for capital criminals should be the Christian way.
I don't know the facts of the Ray Lewis case, if he is a murderer, BTW. Just sayin it's stupid for non-Christians to always hold up the "you must forgive" card. No we don't, not in certain circumstances.
Several of those “christians” on here that just “know” he “really” did it. lol
Don’t forget that even on FR, it is cool to be jealous of those who succeed and reach the heights of excellence.
And just to be clear, yes, I'm laughing AT YOU not with you.
Ah,yes...another Ravens fan chimes in.Pssst...I've got news for ya:OJ was **guilty**...as was Robert Blake...and Kobe Bryant...and William Kennedy Smith.And for the record:**yes**,if there was strong evidence in a double murder case against Tom Brady I'd believe that *he* was guilty too,regardless of what the courts said.

While my post was meant as a humorous commentary on a bad character who is wrongly lionized by the (heathen) media, Black America and sports fans unaware of the incident, I will respond to your unrelated and unwarranted swipe at my religious faith.
What does being a Christian (or christian, as you prefer) have to do with being logically convinced of Lewis' guilt on being an accomplice after the fact to a double homicide based upon evidence presented in a court of law and contemoraneous news accounts?
What does being a Christian (or christian, as you prefer) have to do with being unhappy that Ray-Ray - an alleged Christian (or christian, as you prefer) - has been publicly unrepentant or even communicative about whatever his involvement was in the vicious stabbing deaths of 2 human beings?
As a Christian (or christian, as you prefer), I can't forgive him as God commands if Ray Lewis doesn't ask for forgiveness.
btw, where is your Christian charity in your crude, rude and simplistic (and wrong) doctrinal faith analysis of my disdain for the media and for a likely (but not proven in a court of law) capital criminal and the racist jury that decided the case?
Did I say I hate Ray Lewis? Did I wish him dead? No.
I wrote that his hype as an icon makes me sick to my stomach, that the commercial with his mom & Tom Brady was funny and joked that I enjoyed seeing him lose his fictional NFL Madden videogame matchup with an actor in another commercial.
Gee, I'm gonna burn in hell for that.
Get a life...and a better grip on what being a Christian really means!

What a surprise.
