"Everything and anything can be forgivable...provided one has enough insight into another person's origins and personal problems, and also the willingness to forgive. That does not mean everything is justifiable or allowable, however. Think about the difference between those two, and see if you get what I mean.

What happens when you or anyone refuses to forgive someone else for something they said? Anything good? I don't think so. That doesn't mean, however, that you should allow the unjustifiable to be done when you are in a position to prevent it being done."

Yes Hawk, I do see your point. 'Forgiveable' was a bad choice of word on my part. I should have said "One is no better than the other in my opinion", it would have sufficed, although the difference is nothing to do with the point of my post.
