Todays Quote If forgiveness has no partnership with denying the reality of the offence, neither has it any partnership with denying the likelihood that the offender will re-offend. Just as forgiveness is not saying, It wasnt your fault, or You couldnt help it, or It wasnt so bad, neither is forgiveness saying, Im now so naïve as to believe that my decision to forgive you has suddenly made you incapable of doing wrong. So forgiveness does not mean refusing to put in place loving, appropriate measures to help protect a person from the temptation of re-offending. In fact, since you know the person has a weakness in a particular area, you have an obligation to do whatever is appropriate to reduce his/her exposure to such temptations, as well as to protect other people from threats the person might pose.
