Said & Done: Im carrying on with my career, dude. Im starting over
Man of the week
Rone Moraes da Costa president of Brazils Boa Esporte unmoved by local authority threats to withdraw funding after he signed early-release murderer Bruno. Da Costa: If this city doesnt like it, I move us to another city. Bruno deserves this chance.
Brunos view, set out in his first big interview since he had his girlfriend fed to dogs to avoid paying child support: Dude, what happened, happened. I made a mistake, a serious one, but mistakes happens in life Im not a bad guy. People tried to bury my dream because of one mistake, but I asked God for forgiveness, so Im carrying on with my career, dude. Im starting over.
Emphasis:
...since he (convicted murderer) had his girlfriend fed to dogs to avoid paying child support...but I asked God for forgiveness, so Im carrying on with my career

Opinions vary on that. What I want to know is if the dinosaurs went to heaven.

Lots of Christians are just fine with that. The lie, they insult, or in the case of this guy, murder - but it's all OK because god forgives them.

People love to forget their heroes are monsters, saying god is cool with it makes it all the easier.

Once you ask for forgiveness and accept Jesus you're good to go!
