Somehow I don't buy that load of bullsh!t
If they wanted to find Jesus, they could have started before they were raping, stealing and murdering people!
This whole 'i found Jesus' thing is just a bogus ploy to look good before the Parole Board.

You're right.
Most of them leave Him in the prison when they're released!

It might be playing for some of them, but being at the bottom of the food chain ( so to speak ) can make you reconsider certain things. Many people think that it can't happen to them. And then they find themselves in the big house.
So I understand why there are so many Christian converts in prison. Maybe prison is worse than you think!

You are so right. The best one to 'find Jesus' was Paris Histon. Personally, I'm glad my ex 'found bikers' and hung out with them when he was in the big house.

Many people respond to God when they are humbled by difficult circumstances. It should come as no surprise, because Saul murdered early Christians, before Jesus revealed Himself to Saul on the road to Damascus.
I do believe many are "faking" and putting on a show to get lighter sentences, and early parole.
Still, I think a genuine change of heart can, and does take place in prisons.
God Bless!

The point isn't that criminals find Jesus, but that Jesus reaches out and finds criminals (just as He does everyone else). Don't forget, He reached out to a criminal even whilst hanging on the Cross.

Its not amazing it's what you call sucking up. Its what you have to do to get along and get parole. Suck up.

You are so right. Criminals are devious people who will stop at nothing to get the freedom they think they deserve.

i wouldnt be surprised since christianity is based on guilt tripping...
"you're a criminal but jesus loves you"
they fall for it most of the time.
you are right too... trying to earn some sympathy by saying they're "better" now that they're christian...
