Folly on the Bench

When a Miami judge sentenced a woman who slit her husband’s throat not to prison but to five years of teaching Sunday school, it revealed just how deeply our culture has learned to make sin respectable. With thieves in office and unbelievers in pulpits, why not a murderess in the classroom? In this episode, we examine the growing trend of legalizing and excusing sin in the name of “rehabilitation,” even as Scripture declares that the soul that sins shall die. Unpunished crime never reforms society; it corrodes it, turning communities into a quiet hell on earth. And when officials preach compassion while refusing responsibility, their mercy becomes both folly and hypocrisy.
