[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 548464, member: 6546"] Oh I have no doubt that he "found G-d"... It's just another in a long line of justifications that there is nothing wrong with how he lives his life. in my humble opinion - the appeal of "religion" (especially being Born Again) to addicts and felons is that religion offers one that "fresh start" and "clean slate" and a chance to deny everything that has ever gone before because [I]now[/I] - everything is different....and shame on you for trying to bring up the past. So sorry... PS - I am not trying to bash anyone's honest religious experiences. I'm just trying to state that it is easily used as an excuse and a "free pass" by some people... [/QUOTE]
