Bill Anderson, you do not know the meaning of the word Christian: the mean spirited and racist statements on this blog about the city of Durham, the accuser and her family and Nifong belie anything gracious or Christian. For people like you to try quoting the bible is proof of the old saying that the Devil will quote scripture for his own purpose<br /><br />2.You say that you are undergoing a family crisis--I can guess what it is and it involves your black adoptive kids and they have finally read some of the racist things you have said and are appalled, I bet. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.<br /><br />3.nifong giving in today just shows he is human and he is trying to speed up the inevitable disgrace that he has coming for taking a black woman's word againist rich whites. this is proof that while you cannot buy an election in Durham county as the Duke 3 tried to do, but you CAN buy your way out of a rape case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806061.post-33519012656261402562006-12-22T20:07:00.000-05:002006-12-22T20:07:00.000-05:00Actually, that comes from "I heard the bells on Ch...Actually, that comes from "I heard the bells on Christmas Day" by Longfellow. But it still fits.<br /><br />Phil Yancey's book "What's So Amazing about Grace?" is a classic and one I would endorse.<br /><br />The system has shown too much grace to prosecutors who lie, but Nifong still must face his Maker. Some hardcore repentance must be in order here, as lies go to the heart of the system.<br /><br />Those of us who are Christians understand the nature of grace, and I need to say that no one deserves it. I am no more deserving of the Grace of God than is Nifong, but Nifong still needs to confess what he has done, for his actions have been evil, and the damage has been horrific.<br /><br />My friends, i.e Joan Foster and others, know about my next statement: We are undergoing a family crisis that requires a huge amount of grace. I know what it means to have to reach down deep in order to forgive. But those who seek grace cannot come to the table with hands that are full; those hands must be empty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806061.post-76084703509783374522006-12-22T11:51:00.000-05:002006-12-22T11:51:00.000-05:00Beautifully written.

But what brodhead did was unconscionable. He is supposed to know better. He is a dis-grace-ful (to coin a word) embarrassment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806061.post-43829869180275468402006-12-22T11:12:00.000-05:002006-12-22T11:12:00.000-05:00A few poignant words from "God Rest Ye Merry Gentl...A few poignant words from "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" -<br /><br />God is not dead, nor doth he sleep<br />The wrong shall fail<br />The right prevail<br />With peace on earth goodwill toward men.<br /><br />Merry Christmas, Reade, Collin and Dave.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31806061.post-4078301111396619162006-12-22T10:52:00.000-05:002006-12-22T10:52:00.000-05:00For those in your audience with no personal code o...For those in your audience with no personal code or who have never experienced grace, this amazing post may well have been written in Greek.<br /><br />Mike Nifong will not stand down from this hoax as a display of intergrity nor grace. He will stand down for the same reason he persecuted this hoax in the first place. His own personal and political gain.<br /><br />He has no personal code of ethics and although he, like many of us does not deserve grace, he will receive and has already received much, just the same.<br /><br /><br />darbyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
