Not really my thread, but I thought I'd point out that
the point can easily be made back in Jonah, where you
started. After the Ninevites repent and fast and so
forth God has compassion on them (NIV, I believe) and
changes his mind (NRSV, I believe) about drenching the
city in fire.
My small group just finished a quick study on Jonah,
so it's on my mind :-)
