Now, I did ask a question that you did not answer, earlier.
Is every generation supposed to ask for forgiveness for the preceeding ones?
In other words, you confess, repent and apologize for the sins of your fathers (and mothers too, I assume).
So, would your children need to do the same, only add you to the list of ancestors?

Seems kind of foolish, doesn't it?
