I used to live in the South(Roll Tide) and there were/are a group of Christians who purposelly let venomous snakes bite them to prove God would not let them die. Really weird stuff. Almost like a Fundamentalist Apostolic Freakshow.

Some of you speak through both sides of you mouth and then quote me scripture. Please stop that irritating habit. Do you just spout scripture all day long. If you do its ok. IBut I may/maynot forgive you. You wont know. And I think it wont matter either.

Anyone can forgive you. But you also need to forgive yourself if you feel you have done something wrong. If you haven't done anything wrong, what is it you are seeking forgiveness for?
Forgiveness knows no bounds and cannot be cancelled out by your unforgiveness. But if you don't forgive yourself, the deed will fester inside you and cause you unnecessary grief.

It cancels out forgiveness given to you from God.
Mat 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

It's not up to anyone to forgive you but God if you believe in him which clearly you don't but theoretically yes I forgive you for not forgiving. You have a right to believe what you want to believe as long as you're not hurting anyone else.

you have the free will to believe as you feel in your heart is the right way to believe. as long as your way does not infringe upon the free will and rights of others or violate the laws rules and mores of the Country in which you reside. yes, I can forgive you for not forgiving as this is the least I can do for you.

You can only be forgiven if you ask for forgiveness. If you do not forgive your me I will still forgive you. It is my choice to forgive. God gives me free will in this matter.

God forgives those who forgive. The forgiver is dearer to him than the revenger.

My forgiveness is of little use to you but in order to forgiven you must also forgive.

My forgiveness is not what you need. Jesus is the one you need to talk to.
He will not blame you for being in sin, we all are, he will forgive you everything if you give your life to him and follow him.
