Michael Vick has accepted Christ. God has forgiven him and cleansed him from his sin and made him a new man in Christ:

Therefore if ANYONE is IN CHRIST, he is a NEW CREATURE; the old things passed away; behold, NEW THINGS HAVE COME.

Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation,

namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

(2 Corinthians 5:17-21 NASB Emphasis added)

Mr. Vick has also paid a huge price for his conviction and paid his debt to society. I therefore have no problem with him being a dog owner. If God can forgive him, we should as well, especially those of us who also know and procaliam Christ as savior.

So if a child molester claims he has accepted Christ then you will let him take your kids, if you have any camping for the weekend?

If yes you are an idiot and enabler.

If no you are a hypocrite.

I don't believe a claimed acceptance of Christ changes a person's nature, but then again I live in the real world.

If you really believe that what you wrote applies to Sick Vick , I have a bridge to nowhere I would like to sell you at a very good price. The only thing that sick f##k deserves is to be run through my meat grinder and fed to the dogs. Probably would make the dogs ill though, so just dump the remains into the septic tank.

If he had truly accepted Christ he would do his best to avoid scandal aka he wouldn’t own another dog. Ever.
