Explain the reasoning behind this statement.

I think Druce (Goeghan's murderer) should die in the same horrible way that he killed Father Goeghan.

I think the guards that let him savage Father Goeghan are going to have a lot to answer for. I pray that they all get it back.

I think Druce (Goeghan's murderer) should die in the same horrible way that he killed Father Goeghan.

And are you willing to strangle Druce then? If Druce had no right or authority to judge Geoghan or to kill him, what gives you such a right and authority to judge Druce and prescribe such a death for him?

When Geoghan was alive did you believe that he should have been sexually tortured just as he sexually tortured his victims? Or does the law of talion apply only to Druce?

I think the guards that let him savage Father Goeghan are going to have a lot to answer for. I pray that they all get it back.

So, in other words you are praying to the Lord Jesus Christ - who suffered and died a death He never deserved for our sake - you are praying to the same Lord asking him to inflict pain and suffering on other human beings in order that He may bloodily revenge in Old Testament fashion the death of a child molester?

That is not only a selfish misuse of prayer, it is pretty close to demented.

I would think that only a mentally unbalanced person could be so zealous for bloody vengeance on behalf of a child molester he never knew, so I have to presume that you knew Geoghan personally and knew him well enough to see a side of him that was not apparent from the facts presented to the court.

Be that as it may, I think your own soul would be better served by putting aside your bloodymindedness regarding Druce and praying for his conversion and the conversion of his accomplices. I certainly pity you, and I will remember you in my prayers.
