I decided to go old skul last night and watched Papillon. In the scene where Pappy is at the convent trying to secure his freedom the head Nun, after stealing his pearls and turning him over to the police, gave the gospel of Rome.

Paraphrase: “If you have sinned you have made amends by feeding half the village... If you have not sinned you have nothing to worry about God will be with you.”

LOLOL. Same old, same old. The error of "penance" instead of Scriptural "repentance."

Papillon was a great movie. McQueen should have been at least nominated for an Oscar for his performance.

Did you ever notice Brad Pitt is channeling McQueen in most of his films these days?

Not only that but even if you putatively do not sin you are still lead into bondage.

Not until you just mentioned it. :)
