The one who can't let something go is YOU, RD. You have a burr in your saddle which insists that my inability to forgive those who bullied me separates me from Christ (indeed, you have gone so far as to say I do not believe in Christ, which shows remarkable arrogance on your part). Of course, it doesn't. I would point out two things: Your putting hurt in scare quotes says that you don't believe that I really was injured by the bullying. Thank you for confirming my suspicions that your sympathies are entirely on the side of the bullies.

Second, I suggest that your self-righteousness is far more damaging to your relationship with Christ than the difficulty I have forgiving someone who has actually injured me. My feelings towards that man do not affect you in the slightest, yet you insist on bringing it up repeatedly.

Let me deal with the demons in my soul. You should have enough to do dealing with your own shortcomings than to wag your finger at me and mine.
