The association between Jesus and the U.S. was always strange to me, considering we're much more like the Roman Empire than anyone since... the Roman Empire. How did Jesus feel about the Romans again?
Well, the association is with the heretical apostle Paul retconned Jesus, not the real Jewish Jesus that Jesus claimed to be.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
