Today is September 11th. As a nation, we collectively remember, mourn and pause to remember what that day has meant to our nation. It was a day that the sense of American security crumbled beneath our fingertips... a day when heroism and self-sacrifice reigned... and a day when stereotypes and distrust of 'the other' hit an all-time high. On the eleventh anniversary, one Catholic blogger asked the question (that has certainly been asked over the last 11 years by others like him), Are we supposed to forgive Osama Bin Laden?
Please read this post and in your own words, explain your reaction. Should we forgive? What does it mean to forgive? How is forgiveness a part of the Christian story? In your post, be sure to include your opinion, backed by theological examples. This can be in the form of scripture passages, teachings of Jesus or Traditional teachings of the Church. Your post should be at least 3 paragraphs.
