Should one continue to follow the faith of a group that's cast him out? Shouldn't it stand to reason that if he was true to that faith that the group should have been true to him? Is it unreasonable to ask forgiveness of one who is all-forgiving?

About This Quote

The group that has cast you out for being different have have cast you out because of your beliefs. They have rejected you because they don't agree with your way of thinking. Rather than asking forgiveness, they should be accepting of your apology for having been different. A true friend would understand that you are not the same person anymore and you will never be the same. On the other hand, a true friend would not have cast you out in the first place.
