I think you don't even know what you're talking about anymore. Just what do you think I'm doing?
I think you have talked yourself in circles on this thread to the point that you have confused yourself about this issue between us. I don’t care one hoot whether you believe or accept Greg’s apology as genuine. But I do take umbrage at you holding your own conclusions of that genuineness (or not) above other’s conclusions. In so doing you show horrible disrespect to the maturity of other participants here. There are words for that particular habit. Whether Greg’s apology is genuine is completely subjective and each hearer deserves to be respected as to their view.
You have asked how I would react to this as a judiciary. My answer is that if I am in doubt I would forgive. In this case I certainly doubt your notions of insincerity but I do respect your view. In that case I would favor forgiveness though I would not deny or disrespect your view .
In short, between us, what you are doing is demonstrating arrogance. Please take that as coming from a friend. (Proverbs 27:6) I am not your enemy.
