Why it’s time to start treating revenge as the potentially deadly addiction that it is

yep, justice deserves to be served (above clip - Language warning)

I would quibble with that. We all die eventually. I would say the greatest revenge is being more revered than your adversary.

[bigbob]

Sounds good...right after I get even with that SOB...

[P.O.E.]

Dems have been playing that game of starting the fight then playing victim. Much of their playbook is rooted in the seven deadly sins - greed, envy, sloth, etc.

Look at Antifa - a switcheroo if ever there was one. Justifying their hateful actions by claiming it’s because the other side is so hateful.

Perfect.

It’s not just you...

Revenge is good if justified, in years past. Kill my family member in a unjustified reason and I will kill you. This is a deterrent to more crime and makes society safer. Today the judicial system assume this role. Many times they get it wrong.

I was referencing the West Texas region of the 1850’s. There was little governmental law but some.

The greatest revenge is outliving your adversary.

And pouring a whole pint of premium Irish whiskey over his grave...

...After passing it through your kidneys.

being wasted isn’t a requisite for despising Islam — solve that inconsistency

[tumblindice]

Yes, well, life is not all shoot-shoot, bang-bang, you know.

[linMcHlp]

The left sells anxiety and resentment.

[jmacusa]

Yup. And it throws in dependence for free.

I hate to ask this and I nearly did to a Christian call-in show——

God presents us with many things he shares with us and wants us to have. The types such as the “think on these things” in Philippians. Love. Peace.

When it comes to revenge, he reserves it for himself alone.

Does this mean revenge is the ultimate happy place element of the universe and we aren’t worthy of it like he is?

Or something he doesn’t us to suffer through and he’ll take over. Or we aren’t qualified to decide on true justice since we lack the infinite intelligence and knowledge beyond time that he alone possesses.
