That's a good point Diana. Forgiving does not mean you agree with the behavior. I always assume this will be obvious for everyone. I can still very much disagree with the behavior I am forgiving, yet forgiveness removes a great deal of weight. As you say, via forgiveness, we are detaching ourselves somewhat from it.
Ymarsakar, indeed Jesus forgiving is not enough. He "only" showed us that it was possible to forgive just about anything, "only" is a misnomer here since that was possibly his greatest contribution to humanity. In order to magically change the world, we need to reach a tipping point in the number of people forgiving all other-selves and their selves. Any other attitude will only make things worst and just repeat the same moves that are always the same on this planet and so always going to get the same disappointing results.
