Yep, the best revenge is to live a long and happy life! Not a question, but loved the joke.

It's sad how that joke actually rings true in the hearts of so many people today. But, forgiveness is a major building block in establishing a relationship with God, so we'd better embrace and learn from the concept before it's too late! Thanks for the humor though! I enjoyed it!

Similar thing happened at my church - but it was a fairly young man who stepped forward - claimed he had killed them all......
