She reads the words, but doesn’t hear them.
Years of indoctrination fail to police her actions, so that her beliefs have form in word, only.
She may seek repentance for her unmitigated attack, ignorant of the original Greek interpretation of the word; “to think differently afterwards”.
She will hope for atonement, based on a set of man-made beliefs.
And, should those beliefs be shown to have merit, she will surely find redemption,
as will we all.
Because, after all, the sacrifice has been made.
