does he deserve forgivness ?


A dying Nazi soldier ask a Jew to forgive him for the killing of innocent Jews. Does he deserve forgiveness? I say yes. Firstly we should forgive everyone because we aren’t perfect we make mistakes too so we have no right to judge. In Mathew 7:1 it says “Do not judge, or you too will be judged." Do you want to be judged for your mistakes ? I sure heck don’t ! so we shouldnt judge others for their mistakes . but actions do have consequences forgiving someone doesn’t mean getting a free slip . judgment is different than justice . In mathew:14 -15 it says "14 For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. “if you want to be forgiven for what you’ve done then forgive others. doesn’t mean you agree with what they did.2ndly the soldier ask for forgiveness . by asking for forgiveness he is showing that he admits what he did was wrong. 3rdly the soldier could have been forced into killing people or brainwashed into killing people. so we don’t know what situation he was in .

Ejecting Players for Targeting Will Likely Create More Problems Than It Solves current connection



I agree with the author of
Ejecting Players for Targeting Will Likely Create More Problems Than It Solves: by Adam Kramer
He believes the new ruling of targeting players is going to create more problems than protect players.
The new NCCA ruling states "If the foul occurs in the first half of a game, the player is ejected for the remainder of the game. If the foul occurs in the second half or overtime of a game, the player is ejected for the remainder of the game and the first half of the next contest. In an effort to address concerns when one of these plays is wrongly called on the field, the ejection portion of the penalty will be reviewable through video replay. The replay official must have conclusive evidence that a player should not be ejected to overturn the call on the field. "this is going to be way to hard for a ref to decide if the player was actually targeting or just making a good hit. that is just to much on the refs.
Adam also says "here’s another aspect of this as well, a notion that instant punishment will somehow deter players from launching themselves. The NCAA believes that an immediate ejection is the next step to preventing these types of hits.
Will a safety traveling at incredible speeds think about the possibility of an immediate ejection as he lines up a wide out running a skinny post? Perhaps, although I can’t see this having any more impact than the one-game suspension already in place.” No player is going to think about ejection while sprinting full speed to tackle somebody. Ejection just takes to much out of the game , to much thought process for the players .He also says " This puts officials in a difficult situation. Although a 15-yard penalty brought about plenty of debate, removing a player—a potentially game-changing ruling—will up the ante and their responsibilities." Ejecting a player can ultimately change the course of a game. imagine having to put in a rookie instead of your veteran that got ejected. Adam also says "It’s a difficult call and ruling to make, even with ample hours to watch the hit repeatedly. Now, imagine having to make this call under the gun, with a ravenous crowd anxiously awaiting a thumbs up or thumbs down on an ejection" There is just not enough time to be able to review such a game deciding call like ejection. Why put all that pressure on a ref who already has intense pressure.
