Three weeks ago, Scottish authorities sickened most thoughtful, reasonable and good people with their "mercy" release of the Lockerbie bomber. Today, Susan Atkins, one of Charles Manson's cult members, died in prison from cancer. She received no similar mercy from our law, in her conviction (admission) of killing Sharon Tate 40 years ago.
Both claim (or claimed) to have a relationship with God. For one, that relationship is being tested tonight. For the other, it will be soon (we are told). I imagine there are many different opinions on what God will decide for both of them. Only they will know.
What I know, is that we mere mortals handled Atkins correctly. The decision in Scotland was an abomination however. But it doesn't matter I guess, as both cases are "coming due" with the ultimate authority. I'm happy to leave it with Him.

It would seem that the Scottish and English governments agreed....
Rumors are many....
We think Shakespeare said it:
'Uneasy lies the head(s) that wear the crowns.'
