thank you. But let me ask you — don’t you think she should be allowed to ASK for mercy by dying at home, since she only has weeks or short months left on earth? What is the harm in giving her the right to ASK?
All she is doing is asking — whether her request is granted or not is up to what God allows.
Alas, she lost her right to ask for mercy, for she showed none to her victims.
I pray that she gets some solace within the prison system, and that her family is allowed to be with her when she goes to meet her God.
She has every right to ask, “adopt4Christ”, but she is not entitled to a favorable answer.
We live on earth, Satan’s favorite stomping grounds, and we must continue with our best efforts to establish human laws to confront and to confine evil.
If we err, God will set it straight.
While this woman has every right to ask, we must think about earthly justice vs. heavenly justice.
In my humble opinion, she should die in jail.
You may feel differently, and may think that going easy on evil makes you “holier/more forgiving” than the rest of us. Perhaps you mistake “forgiveness” for tolerance. God forgives, but we humans are not asked to “tolerate” such evil in our midst.
Being kind and tolerant of this kind of evil evil isn’t part of my understanding of what Christ is teaching us.
He loved the sinner, but hated the sin. I truly doubt he would have forgiven this poor woman’s sin here on earth, and I think he would have supported her sentence, but He would prayed for her repentence, and trusted her soul to God.
We are not stoning this woman. We are just denying her what she denied her victims.
