Convicted sex offender claims he found Jesus while in prison and asks for a lesser sentence because of it.

Fortunately, the judge has enough sense to refuse his request. Still, it bugs me to know that, had he gotten the right judge, it would have gone right through.

Keep your penis to yourself?

Get a massive circumcision?

No wait, just cop to being a sinner. Bawl your eyes out while proclaiming you leave it in the lord's hands.

Shouldn't Jesus' forgiveness been enough? What difference or importance could possibly be ascribed to a secular pardon? Hmm...


What a douche-y ploy.

"I know you were raped, but your rapist loves Jesus, so I'm afraid he won't be brought to justice".

I'd give the fucker a longer sentence just for trying this shit.

Well, technically, if you're going to follow the Bible like a good Christian is supposed to, you'd be forced to insist that 1) the rapist gets no jail time and 2) that the rapist and the rape victim have to get married. At least that's what God demands in OT law; never does go back on that, does he?

Quote:“He took religious classes in prison. He also took classes regarding sex offender’s stuff,”

Well, truth be told, a pervert can learn lots of shit about being a sexual predator by reading that fucking bible.

Judge should have given him the chair.

To date, I've managed to completely avoid the consequences of rape - simply by not raping.

Funny how that works.

If only he read his Bible before raping...he could have said Jesus died for his sins on the cross so whatever sins he does it's paid for. Good defense. Other people like atheists, Jews, Muslims, their life is hard because they cannot sin, but Christians can! That's why they have a Christ. Then locking him up for rape? That's merely delaying his inevitable raise to heavens! The Bible says it! His soul will be saved through the blood of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ, whoever believes in him shall have eternal life.

The Bible should be every rapist's modus operandi manual. Rape the woman, pay her father 50 sheckels and then rape her till she dies of old age.

The rapist didn't have to get married if he didn't think the girl screamed loudly enough. If she was the quiet whimpering type, (those vixens!), he could choose to throw stones at her until her death.

Every American should know this because the US justice system was based on god's commandments, just ask the tea baggers. I do wonder why they only tend to put stone monuments to the regular ten commandments when this rule would obviously fit so well withing our judicial system?

Hopefully the criminal will see that as a Christian he owes society the time he was given. Any judge that would give this man less time because he has come to know Jesus is not much of a judge, when one is convicted they should have to pay the penalty given them, they asked for the penalty when they committed the crime. The penalty is there to help prevent crime. But I guess those who believe we do not have free will to decide whether to commit the crime or not will have a better judgement for the man, seeing how he couldn't change the fact and was only doing what he was born to do.
