No. There are consequences to all our actions. IMO, it takes hate and fear to do something like that. I would rather see her put the crosses back up, thinking about what they represent and come to understand why charges were dropped and her enemies forgave her.

The State cannot dispense God's justice. The Law cannot turn the other cheek. Carried to your extreme it would basically allow anyone to talk their way out of anything.

The good professor seems sorry only because she realizes that she will probably get her students expelled. She underestimated the firestorm she would generate.

Having the folks who put up the display forgive her is a completely separate issue from paying the price for her criminal act.

Besides, I haven't heard her ask for anyones forgiveness, have you? I'm not much of a Christian but I'm pretty sure that there are two sides to that forgiveness thing.

One has to truly repent of ones actions before one can be forgiven, right?

And I'm not up early...I'm working very late. I'ts been a busy night down in the EOC. Hopefully I'll be out of here on time this morning and I can get home to get Lurker Jr off to school and then get some sleep.
