beyond guilt and innocence……

There are many who are not guilty of doing anything wrong but very guilty of sins of omission – the things they neglect to do – the good things – the kind, thoughtful words, compassionate thoughts and hopeful attitudes they might have had towards their neighbor.                  …

what is guilt and innocence ?between these two words there  lies a small difference .as The difference between not guilty and innocent is somewhat difficult to identify at first glance.

Indeed, legally, the line between the terms is very thin while some might even interpret the terms to mean the same thing.

so In general, the best way to distinguish the two is to think of Not Guilty as a verdict or finding given by a court of law in a criminal case, and where Innocent, is as a fact or state of being indicating a person’s innocence based on his/her moral beliefs, behaviour, character and conduct in life.
Likewise, a person found Not Guilty of a particular offence may not necessarily be Innocent of the crime. It is a verdict that typically suggests that the prosecution failed to prove the case against the defendant beyond reasonable doubt.
