[QUOTE="taykair, post: 156774, member: 9418"] Many believe Jesus to be the Son of God or, at the very least, a messenger of God. Jesus taught us to forgive. Whether the offender asks our pardon or not is immaterial. We are to "turn the other cheek". Never mind the fact that most of us still want "justice" (which, for many, is usually just a nice way of saying "revenge"). Never mind that we hold grudges. The question is: Would God ask us to uphold a moral standard which He Himself is not willing to follow? I doubt it. The God who wants us to forgive is a forgiving God Himself - not only promising to forgive our wrongs, but to forget them as well. I, [I]even[/I] I, [I]am[/I] he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. (The Book of Isaiah. Chapter 43. Verse 25. KJV) For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. (The Book of Hebrews. Chapter 8. Verse 12. KJV) [/QUOTE]
