Have you never been introduced to the concept of forgiveness?
It’s not new. Anyone can try it. Some religions even require it. It is a central principle of Christianity. Just so you know.
I have long forgiven Newt. I am not the One Whose forgiveness counts, however. It appears that many people have. However, it also appears that most do not trust him any longer, which is not the same thing. Would you allow a forgiven child molestor to work unsupervised in a day care center?
