Let's Discuss... Forgiveness

It looks like we have forgotten how to forgive one another, either from the rise of cancel culture or the demand for repentance for the sins of our fathers. Can forgiving each other be the path forward to a time and the place where we don't have to blame one another and live a better life as the results of that?

Can we forgive everything?

What is the alternative for forgiving?

Where is the line between forgiving and forgetting?
