John: No [hits Mark].
Michelle: You know that repenting means not just saying you’re sorry, but also choosing to turn away from your sin, right?
John: I’ve tried that. I turned away [turns 90 degrees, hits Mark even though Mark is now behind him and John can’t see where he’s aiming], and I turned away [turns another 90 degrees, hits Mark sideways], and I turned away [now facing Mark, hits him again]. I still don’t feel any better...
Michelle: Let me put that more simply for you, have you thought about stopping hitting Mark?
John: But it’s SO satisfying. I see him, and I want to hit him, it’s addictive [hits Mark]. There you go!
Megan: Wouldn’t it be more satisfying to have a clear conscience before God?
