What I love about American evangelical Christianity is that a small-time thief can find God in prison, remake himself as a pastor, steal even more money, and no doubt be able to do so again by claiming he has seen the error of his ways and realized it was bad.
(I don't want to imply that "once a thief, always a thief", and that personal redemption is impossible. Just that maybe don't give this guy a second chance after the first).
