    Hi whereu
    Are you advocating revenge and retribution rather than turning the other cheek?
    Compare the approaches to the end of WW1 with that at the end of WW2. The mindset of revenge and retribution at the end of WW1 resulted in WW2. The approach at the end of WW2 resulted in former enemies becoming allies.
    Desmond Tutu warned the Tutsi and Hutu in Rwanda that the mindset of revenge and retribution could only land up in continuous cycles of violence after violence to extract revenge for the latest violent acts. The chain could only be broken through forgiveness.
    Sorry, I think that you are wrong.
    Brilliant post whereu. Keep it up.

    Why is it that a non religious person can see that clearly, whilst religious people on HC tremble with excitement at the very thought of their god coming back maiming and killing in revenge for man kind sins.
    Given what you have just said is exactly what Jesus said, I cannot understand how bible bashers on HC continuosly ignore Jesus in preference to Paul and the abomination of revelations.
