Hey Ed, what would we be forgiving you for? Eating sentiants, or caring too much about the environment?
Why am I suddenly reminded of hunting down a psycho years ago who only preyed upon drug users and pushers?
His line was something like,
"But I'm killing people for Christ!"
To which I replied,
"Well, sure you are and Christ wants you to stop now."
In retrospect, maybe I shouldn't have been that sarcastic, but we did end up saving everybody the time and effort of a trial. And besides, he got to personally ask Christ if beating, stabbing, and shooting all those people was really part of the Master Plan.
