Answer:

If we agree to forgive someone too quickly and uncritically in an effort to repair a relationship, without discussing and acknowledging the injury, then we are not necessarily doing it for the right reasons, and the issue will probably still fester.

And too often, the concept of forgiveness has been jumbled up with other ideas. For instance, we can excuse someone's conduct by deciding that the person who did us wrong simply couldn't help him- or herself. That is not forgiveness

Forgiveness also isn't the same as mercy. Showing mercy means reducing or eliminating the punishment completely, while being willing to forgive doesn't necessarily negate retribution. For example, there are programs where victims meet and forgive the criminals who injured them -- but still believe they should be punished. Murphy puts it this way: "Forgiveness is a change of heart toward someone -- overcoming the feelings of anger and resentment that typically come from being wronged by another."

Which mythical creature torture torture those who are guilty of suicide?
adoni [48]
In Dante's Divine Comedy (specifically the Inferno), it is harpies that torture people who chose to commit suicide. The people who committed suicide are stuck in trees in a forest and tortured by the harpies. This is supposedly a punishment for having taken their own life, as they instead face eternal torture rather than eternal life.
