I actually agree with you about letting this woman slide since she is mainly just a cafeteria assitant

but you can’t hold Christians to standards you yourself don’t believe in and then call them on it.

there is this notion amongst non Christians.....secular Jews most often tout these notions when criticizing Christian morality.....”that Christians have to forgive anything that involves contrition”...more or less

that’s simply not true.

some posters here think this woman is a threat to the kids and that has nothing to do with forgiveness

forgive her fine but get her another job....that’s what they would say

I think Christians should discern forgiveness carefully.

I didn’t state I whether I was a Christian or not, it was some assumption (and we know what happens when you assume) put forward by a babbling, detective-wannabe but that’s neither here nor there on this question.
Many get bothered when the media focuses on the religious when they do something wrong but overlook a coach, teacher, etc., who commits the same act.
The inverse is wrong as well. We don’t have scarlet letters or the Mark of Cain. People are imperfect, the recognize their failings, repent and move forward with their lives. We are not Philistines or muslims, we are Americans. This is the land of second chances, third chances, fourth chances.
That was my only point. Thanks for the opportunity to chat.
