My memory drifts to the mother of the young man hunted down & killed by three men, when there was no evidence of wrong doing. I think about the pain of this mother as she witnessed video in court of her son laying in the street with a hole in his chest & no one to render aid to him. I weep when I think of this mother who lives with this pain daily. I cannot forgive those murderers. I cannot forgive the Nazis for the Holocaust. It is not possible. Why forgive such evil doers? They must be punished for their crimes. These are my feelings on the subject of forgiveness. Thank you for your article, Patrick.
