    Rollie is correct, of course, Alexander Pope, adding the dates of which I was unaware without looking up...thanks, Rollie.

    In the Lord's Prayer, as most Christians such as myself are aware, there is the pleading to God that He forgive us (me) of our (my) sins (errs) against God, in the same manner that I forgive the sins of those who sin against us/me.

    I have many times searched my life, and I would forgive, if I knew anyone who did, in fact, sin against me...but I am unable to determine that such person exists. So, I guess I got it kinda easy on my side of the deal. :-)
