“To forgive the incessant provocations of daily life - to keep on forgiving the bossy mother-in-law, the bullying husband, the nagging wife, the selfish daughter, the deceitful son - how can we do it? Only, I think, by remembering where we stand, by meaning our words when we say in our prayers each night, â€œForgive our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.â€ We are offered forgiveness on no other terms. To refuse it is to refuse Godâ€™s mercy for ourselves. There is no hint of exceptions and God means what he says.”

The Constitution guarantees due process, not judicial process.”
