An article in the Washington Post quotes John Edwards: "We are all sinners, we all fall short, which is why we have to ask for forgiveness from the Lord."
Well, speak for yourself, Mr. Edwards. And, when did you become omniscient, to know how all people live their lives? Omniscience has only been ascribed to the Deity and my mother-in-law.
Edwards fails to take into account those of us who have higher moral and ethical standards than he does, and who conduct ourselves in a manner that does not require forgiveness.
