Just got back from vacation and read all the posts in this thread.
I know there is a great debate whether SS has served his time and if someone would, or would not, support him through his book or whatever he is trying to do.
I won't be supporting him by purchasing his works or by attending any seminars he may be involved in. Of course, I haven't done this in the past (with the exception of a sublimation seminar long ago).
As far as whether or not he has served his time, I guess that has to be left up to the judicial system, as flawed as it sometimes seems to be.
I have a nephew (at 21 years old) that spent a few years in prison for child molestation. What drives people to do this sort of thing I can't understand but I will say I have not given up on him. After all, I believe we are ALL given a second chance by One greater than us.
My nephew is working hard to right his life and I can't ask for anything more than that from him. Would I want him to be left with young children.....NO, but he is my late brother's son and I will not cast him aside without any hope that he can lead a productive life from this moment in time. Perhaps the circumstance is different because he is a blood relative and not just someone I really don't know.
The God that I know wants me to hate the sin, not the sinner. And, yes, I even believe that if someone takes another life that they should suffer the consequences on earth as the law dictates. But, the final judgment does NOT belong to me.

Brian,
I thought I read in the "other" forum that this was removed ???

The link itself was not the reason for removal. David's explanation was that the post was redundant to redundant.
Gees, so is this one.
