So how have you decided to atone?
Ever hear of "there is no honor amongst thieves"?
So how have you decided to atone?
"Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well. But they will treat you like this on account of My name, because they do not know the One who sent Me. If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.…"
-John 15:21
Through repentance of course.
Why would you repent if you have been faithful to the Lord's word on this site?
Take joy in spreading the word. Except...
You know you have sinned before all.
You know it.
"And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.”
-John 8:7
I got no problem with that.
Explain your trangressions to the Lord, not me.
Explain to the Lord why you continue your sins.
You think the Lord will accept YOU are fallible, so you can willfully just keep sinning?
You think this pleases him?
Explain to me which Commandment I am violating and I will acquiesce.
Oh it's that easy?
So the Bible is merely the 10 commandments?
You know what I am saying. You slither like a snake.
If you would ever like to discuss the Bible I am here for you![]()
Pointless to argue with a modern day Christian fundamentalist. Their religion is a fabrication so they can fabricate whatever just to win an argument and also sell their beliefs.
I prefer others who try and care.
You might have learned from someone who did.
Go back to that and start over.
Or don't.
He gets it.
Face to face he would admit it.
Just look at the sex offenders database in Texas. Those ers are everywhere. They have their faces, names and addresses listed yet the same people who were in prison get out and don't go looking for them. Instead they shoot some drug dealer for a bag of meth and 200 dollars. Look how many people were killed in prison and of those, how many were convicted of child molestation or rape vs other variables like gang affiliation, race and a host of other things like being a former LEO.
Social structures exist outside of prison. Have you killed a pedo?
At least you're trying.
Can you say the same truthfully to yourself.
Well its kinda like you got to deal with the immediate situation.
If I was a career criminal it would not make a lot of sense to go after a pedo when the sheep with money abound.
I was under the premise that if one is locked up, you deal with the people and structure that are around you at that moment.
This seems very obvious.
Though this might be true in some prisons like California, it's not true in most of the rest of the country. The stats exist, no need to speculate.
You don't apply stats to people in completely different cir stances.
You try your best to control the experiments or gathering of data.
We are either predicting the future or referring to the past. If the latter, stats exist. If the future, anyone's guess is as good as anyone else's.
"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ."

Has Frozen Over! CNN Just Took President Trump's Side!
CNN's latest article regarding special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into whether or not Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential elections came out surprisingly in support of the President; stating Mueller is crossing the line.
From CNN:
(CNN)Last month, when President Donald Trump was asked by The New York Times if special counsel Robert Mueller would be crossing a line if he started investigating the finances of Trump and his family, the President said, "I think that's a violation. Look, this is about Russia."
The President is absolutely correct. Mueller has come up to a red line in the Russia 2016 election-meddling investigation that he is dangerously close to crossing.
According to a CNN article, Mueller's investigators could be looking into financial records relating to the Trump Organization that are unrelated to the 2016 election. According to these reports, "sources described an investigation that has widened to focus on possible financial crimes, some unconnected to the 2016 election." The piece goes on to cite law enforcement sources who say non-Russia-related leads that "involve Trump associates" are being referred to the special counsel "to encourage subjects of the investigation to cooperate."
This information is deeply concerning to me. It does not take a lawyer or even a former federal prosecutor like myself to conclude that investigating Donald Trump's finances or his family's finances falls completely outside of the realm of his 2016 campaign and allegations that the campaign coordinated with the Russian government or anyone else. That goes beyond the scope of the appointment of the special counsel.
In fact, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein's letter appointing special counsel Robert Mueller does not give Mueller broad, far-reaching powers in this investigation. He is only authorized to investigate matters that involved any potential links to and coordination between two en ies -- the Trump campaign and the Russian government. People are wrongly pointing to, and taking out of context, the phrase "any matters that arose or may arise directly from the investigation" to characterize special counsel's authority as broad.
The word "investigation" is clearly defined directly preceding it in the same sentence specifically as coordination between individuals associated with the campaign of Donald Trump and Russia. The Trump Organization's business dealings are plainly not within the scope of the investigation, nor should they be.
Indeed, Sunday on Fox News, Rod Rosenstein acknowledged Mueller had limited authority and would need to seek his permission to expand the investigation.
Beyond the legal reading, the broad authority argument defies plain logic: If the special counsel could investigate anything he wants, why would there even need to be a letter spelling out the specific limits of the investigation?
One of the dynamics at play here is that people are conflating this investigation and Kenneth Starr's 1994 investigation into President Bill Clinton. While partly understandable at first glance, the two investigations are not comparable -- not only have more than two decades passed since then, but a completely new law and legal framework governing separate investigations has also passed. Starr was an independent counsel and Mueller is a special counsel, the two words are different for a reason.
Any investigation into President Trump's finances or the finances of his family would require Mueller to return to Rod Rosenstein for additional authority under Mueller's appointment as special counsel.

lol Chris doesn't know what an opinion piece is.
Rosenthal cleared Mueller to pursue any crimes uncovered in the course of the investigation.
