What can he say...SORRY I SAID OUT LOUD WHAT I REALLY FEEL INSIDE? He said what he meant. He's just sorry the world now knows. What's to forgive him for? I'm being serious. Forgiveness is given for true remorse. If that's how he feels that's how he feels. But this is the way I feel.
I think his apology shows clearly that he is ashamed of those feelings. He needs God's Grace to overcome them, obviously.
I've done and thought and felt enough things that I'm ashamed of to have some compassion.
