should people forgive everyone all the time even child rapists who keep raping because they know you'll forgive them?

    Forgiveness doesn't mean exemption from restitution! To receive forgiveness your expected to repent and restore what you took.

    In the case of a child molester the offender instead of long prison should simply be surgical casterated given a two year work training and released! They will never be a threat to a child if they don't have the equipment!

    It takes 50 thousand dollars a year to imprison these people that get out and reoffend a 5 thousand dollar operation cure the problem

    They will be docile productive workers with no desire for sex period

    it should be a law and i think it is in some states that a rapist of Children be sterilized so he can not get it up no more. as part of the sentance he recieved. a repeat rapist should be sterilized so that he can not do it again he should be made a Eunuch. God does not like it when his children are offended it would be better if a stone were tied around the persons neck and thrown into the ocean. then to offend one of the little ones. thanks for the question friend God bless.

    Forgiving people doesn't mean that they should go unpunished.

    you are only "getting" 1/2 of the idea....along w/the forgiveness is the repentance of whatever actions caused you to be in need of forgiveness..........what sense does it make to keep committing the same crime ??

    It is hard to say what to do when anyone who sleeps with a girl younger than 18 is accused of rape in America. It is important to separate the real evil from the false, however if you find the real ones, kill them.

    You probably think that forgiveness means avoiding the consequences and avoiding justice. But it's the opposite.

    Jesus said those who offend one of these little ones, it were be better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

    Yes. That doesn't mean they don't have to pay a price for their actions though, it just means we are to not judge them.

    There are always consequences to our actions.
