At this point all we have is a mealy mouthed self-centered statement by the pervert. So, no, at this point he is not redeemed.
Hiding from who? The likes of people who are saying nothing but what a horrible, vile, disgusting human he is?
Maybe he’s dealing with the fact that something that is supposed to be under the blood of Jesus Christ, is coming back to ruin his life.
Oh please. He has mommy and daddy and the sisters he fondled out doing battle for him. Coward.
Let he who is without sin....
Since no one is without sin, no one can say anything. Nice and tidy application of scripture.
The haters in the media, and the in the left have a lot in common. They use up people as a commodity for their profits and then they dispose of them.
These are the same people that went after Michael Jackson as a pedophile, and then when he died they worked to change his image and put his music on a pedestal so their Hollywood cronies and promoters could make a ton of money posthumously. Their concern was money not righteous.
Scruples, respect and loyalty is an alien concept to these media people.
“You are conflating a young boy who fondled his sisters as a “child molester.” While this is very objectionable, it does not make of him a “Child Molester” in the normal understanding of the word. For one, he himself was a child.”
It’s strange seeing the reactions to this story when compared to the pool party in Texas. In the Duggar case a 14 year old committed disgusting crimes, but is just a child and should be forgiven and protected. At the pool party a 14 year old gets mouthy with a cop who appears to be out of control and is violently thrown to the ground because she’s a dangerous thug.
Please show me that in the Bible.
Not being snarky, but if it’s biblically speaking, I’d like to see that in chapter and verse. I mean the exact age. I understand it’s somewhere in that range...but it takes into account the individual. It’s not the same for everyone. However, he obviously knew it was wrong, so I don’t see what the age of accountabilty has to do with anything.
He was accountable for his offenses. So because he wasn’t punished to your satisfaction, he obviously didn’t repent? He never tried to turn his life around?
So what punishment should he receive NOW, as a grown man with a family, for something he did when he was 12, 13, 14? Do tell.
The “Democratic” partisan liberal left elites are intent on creating a hate filled philosophy that “Christians” are now an evil threat and need to be loaded on train cars and shipped somewhere never to be seen again. They’ve been working this gig subliminally and intently for decades.
Well hello there Jesus Christ. I didn’t know you posted on FR.
BY THE WAY, the only thing Biblically required to others regarding our sin, is a STATEMENT.
I said it was traditional. A simple google search on your part can confirm that. The point being that he was a child at 14 is ludicrous. Plus he was also doing this at 15 - which is when he felt up his 5 year old sister. In any case, he was damn well aware of what he was doing.
Punishment? Completely discredited and out of the public eye. And take the cult family with him. I’d like to see more, but the statute of limitations precludes that.
The study quoted NEVER said ANYTHING about them having licensed or unlicensed therapy.
What it did say was this:
Similarly, clinical data point to variability in risk for future sex offending as an adult. Multiple short- and long-term clinical followup studies of juvenile sex offenders consistently demonstrate that a large majority (about 8595 percent) of sex-offending youth have no arrests or reports for future sex crimes. When previously sex-offending youth do have future arrests, they are far more likely to be for nonsexual crimes such as property or drug offenses than for sex crimes (Alexander, 1999; Caldwell, 2002; Reitzel and Carbonell, 2007)
Nothing about counseling.
I knew exactly what the stats said for your information. There are many studies out there. Not all of them so hopeful
You know sh.. You're just grasping.
I just looked at just the first 10 reports. NONE of them hint at what you claim as being "not all as hopeful"
You claim that I'm the one who can't back anything up.
Here you go.
Google search "doj study on juvenile sex offenders molestations"
There's a whole list of studies for your perusal. MAYBE you can find one that will back up what you say.
Here is the DOJ study that I actually quoted:
https://www.ncjrs.gov/pdffiles1/ojjdp/227763.pdf
Tell you what Buttercup. I posted my sources AND I did actual quotes.
Put up or shut up.
Let's see these so called studies that you've SUPPOSEDLY read.
Google is a miracle.
If these reports exist that you've SUPPOSEDLY read, then you should find them...
in oh...
A FEW SECONDS...maybe a few minutes AT MOST.
Oh dear. Read your Bible. UNREPENTED SIN.
Have you ever sinned? Repented?
Really? All you need to do is make a statement? Where is that verse?
So he shouldn’t be forgiven?
I give no quarter to false christians. They can repent all they want.
Its not polite to fart in public.
Translation: You're talking out your a--.
You have no clue what you speak of. You're just trying to sound authoritative...
and failing miserably.
I’m not sure that his statement was self-centered, but - OK. I’m getting the picture that there’s nothing this guy has done, is doing, or will ever do that might be enough to atone for past wrongdoing - in your eyes.
I give no quarter to a--holes.
And you're an a--hole.
You know nothing about Christianity and yet feel your qualified to judge them.
You're not smart enough to judge anyone.
You're a rube played by the MSM and too ignorant to know it.
Ok so the punishment for crimes in our teens should be to destroy our family and take away or livelihood by discrediting any accomplishments from our adulthood? and oh, not be in the public eye? Where is that law written?
Punish 28 year olds for what they did as young teens. Even though they confessed and owned up to it then. Even though it’s not their fault they weren’t hung in the public square before their 15th birthday.
That’s not Biblical. By the way.
