No it is not but fortunately God forgives our sins when we sincerely repent.
No, it is not, but fortunately God forgives our sins when we sincerely repent. Criminal charges disposed of. Civil claims settled. Public apology. It is not as though he had served as a guard at Auschwitz or as a volunteer for Hillary.
Oh, and from my perspective, if the National Basketball Association were dissolved and not replaced, my life would not be diminished at all.
Apparently not. He has never been a public cheerleader for abortion. He has publicly repented his sin. He has sought the help of his pastor in reforming his life. Pelosi and Biden and John Kerry and Martin O’Malley and Rosa DeLauro and Patty Murray and Kristen Gillibrand and Little Dick Durbin and so many, many others: Not really!
His father came out and said that he didn’t his son marry a Hispanic!
Still repeating all the wild internet rumors that cross the transom eh?
Uh ... didn't his teammates pretty much feed him the ball all night?
I need to read up on his patron saint, St. Kobe. No doubt there is an article on him in The Catholic Encyclopedia.
Jobim, I thought the story was of contrition, repentance, healing and faith too. Uplifting. And that he reconciled with his wife. Oh, he’s not perfect? tsk tsk.
Don’t you mean “quiet”? LOL!
I tend to agree.
Yes I did. ;)
Wow. God bless you Kobe, you will be in my prayers. Good luck with your homeless ministry! I’m not going to judge you on your past, do great things in the future.
This pope is not Catholic. He is the anti-pope that we were warned about in the bible.
What a difference three decades makes. Back in the 1980s, we had Reagan, Thatcher and Pope John Paul II. Great leaders who understood the threat of communism and the evil it represents.
Now we have a communist president, a communist pope and a corrupt, immature wimp as PM of the UK who wants Europe to submit to the caliphate.
Sorry to get off topic.
I hope that Kobe and his wife were truly able to work it out and have found peace. The opportunistic, lying whore that accused him of rape is a disgrace to all other rape victims. He was vulnerable, made a poor choice, but from what the article says, he found redemption and strength in his Catholic faith. For that, I am happy for him. We are all sinners. God is always there to forgive those who are truly remorseful. I hope that this is the case with Kobe, and I wish him well. Others do not find redemption and destroy their lives.
