unforgiveable
Cannot be absolved
Unforgiveable describes an act or offense so severe that it cannot or should not be pardoned: What he did to her was unforgiveable.
The word implies a moral threshold has been crossed—betrayal, cruelty, or violation beyond redemption.
Also spelled unforgivable, which is more common.
