[As 'Nightcrawler']

There is a vast community here, I see, of many types of people. I wish to know what you think about forgiveness. When it can be offered, that is, and what it means to give it. Whether it can help the person who forgives as well as the forgiven. I know what God says on this matter, but I would like to hear what man says, as well.

	I don't think it's anything. What's he doing to atone? Nothing. Sitting there, eating tax payer money. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not eager to go, either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No one is. But I will protest that there is more to it than 'sitting there'. Very few things are worse than being denied your freedom. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Big difference than here and now. We're not even free in our own heads. What's "Nightcrawler" from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is what they called me when I was young, when I was with the circus. After that, it simply stayed with me. I joined a group of people who had all made names of their own, rather than go by their given names, which had little connection to who they were as individuals. Nightcrawler is not the most flattering, but it is fitting enough, I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're from a circus? That's rich. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is it? We did not have much in the way of money. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Pause.] It's an expression. You're not American. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am not. And that was a joke. You are not a comedian. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, I guess not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You are perturbed by this information? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No humor? Ever again? That is a harsh decision. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_published349 2012-09-18 04:58 am UTC (link)
	I can have humor without being a comedian. [...] I'm going to bed. Have a good forgiveness party, Priest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Fair enough. Sleep well. (Reply to this) (Parent)
