The concept that god forgives your transgressions against others is worthless.

Bill in a fit of rage with Ted cuts off the larger of Teds testicles.

In this scenario god is a disinterested third party. How come he gets to forgive on Teds behalf?
In my view the only person who can offer forgiveness is the wronged person, in this case the mono-testicular Ted.
