Humans are capable of change. We are capable of forgiveness. Forgiveness is a human concept.
I am not a sinner!
Really humans are capable of change, then why is this planet and humanity as a whole are worse off than we have ever been. By the way sin is an action against God, when you commit an offensive action against another person you still have sinned against the God that loves that person. Forgiveness as a concept, really. A concept is an idea, notion or abstraction, in other words it's not real. Forgiveness is real and it is from God and a part of us as we are created to be in the image of God. Yes like me you are a sinner, the difference in us is I'm forgiven by the grace of God and that is a most awesome thing.

Does God bear any responsibility for sending His screw up kid down and inspiring tens of thousands of schisms in His preferred religion ??
Seems like humanity as a whole might have been better served with a much less schism inspiring Savior.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
