You won't be able to demonstrate that in a single case. You could easily demonstrate that passing on "god's anything" is dangerous in the presence of fundie assholes, but that's as far as it will go, and that isn't exactly a flattering appraisal of the situation. You still haven't dented my question one bit. If god's forgiveness is love is morality is forgetting, whew, what a mouthful, then why not simply forget? Why the theatrics? Why scapegoating and magic? I can forget without either, do it all the time. I cant remember half the shit that "people have done to me". I wouldn't actually know that if people didn't remind me. The same is true for "what I have done". While we're at it, how does god forget, exactly? Can you explain the process?
(Just so we're perfectly clear, I don't think you have any answers to offer me. Not a one, not about anything. It's astonishing to me how many words the faithful can string together without saying anything at all. Of course, I would be delighted to be completely wrong on this one.)

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
