[Porterville]

That is true, I look at it that way, but I also look at it - if a person feels they need to hurt someone, they ought to do everything in their power to restrain themselves... if not they can be judged because they are being selfish and therefore open themeslves up to judgement of others; something like that....

[Chad Fairbanks]

We agree on that, for the most part... except for the "judgement by others" part, as we are not supposed to "judge" - it's not our duty. That role belongs to God, and God alone.

Then, of course, we get into man-made laws, and that opens up a whole 'nother can of worms ;0)
