And ma’am I’m not being unkind. Just realistic. From troubling a young woman he might best go to helping troubled young women. Whether directly or by helping men keep from troubling them. David penned psalms that documented his agonizing walk back to grace, psalms that have spoken to millions.
First, check my tag line. I’m using my wife’s account. :)
I believe the woman involved in this mentioned this guy also had an “agonizing” moment at the time.
Of course, this guy isn’t an all-powerful king like david but is in a position where he could help other women. I see his actions 20 years ago as just what boys that age usually do, especially in the culture at that and this time. Heck, I graduated high school in 1972 and I took more than one girl out in the woods in the back seat of my car. But I was like him. I had a line that I didn’t cross and it got pretty scary, depending on the girl. I think most men don’t have that same line nowadays.
And her being under-age? Ffffth! That is an arbitrary 21st century U.S. centric thing. He was young too. Basically we’re talking about two consenting hormone inspired young people.
