Beacon, I respect your belief system. However, as I mentioned before, we do not live in a country where a Christian version of sharia rules. We are a country of laws that are independent of religion. Our laws forbid the molestation of children. It doesn't matter if the offender apologizes, and if the victim forgives. It is wonderful for them that they, PERSONALLY, are able to deal with it. It is good that they can live their lives with the belief that God will welcome them into his loving arms. That does not excuse those that break the law from facing society's condemnation (through the court system) for their actions.
