You’d be surprised at the things that people will and won’t confess to.[to Colin]
The love between a man and wife is sacred. It reflects the love the gods have for all of us. But sin leads us away from the sacred. And only confession can purge sin.
Some believe confession helps a guilty soul find peace, releasing us from the shame and regret of our mistakes. In the face of mortality, many feel the need to seek this closure to make things right. Because if death doesn’t kill us, our demons will.
If evidence is collected, if confessions are made, if a verdict of guilty is entered in a court of law, then its happening becomes as the rocks and rivers, and to argue that it didn’t happen is to argue with reality itself.
I’ll take evidence over a confession any day of the week.
Acknowledging defeat is never easy. Doing it in public is a living hell.
Acknowledging a lie is often the best path to finding the truth.
