COMPLICITY AND THE LIMITS OF FORGIVENESS In simply living our lives, we find that we are complicit in a variety of wrongs. This continuous complicity can deaden us morally, making us insensitive to the violence of modern life. But there is in fact no morally viable way to be forgiven or freed of this complicity, suggesting, in religious terms, a limit to the Atonement.
