touchy feely liberal, take a beating that is how you deal with violence,

38 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
—Matthew 5:38–5:39 KJV

38 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
—Matthew 5:38–5:39 KJV

Screw that, raise a hand against me or mine and I am going to pull a Jesus and beat the snot out of you like a red headed money lender.

Why is it that every other animal species on this planet is allowed to defend itself in some form or fashion, but humans restrict it? Self defense is NOT evil. Hell, it's flat out un-natural to NOT defend one's self.

36 He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.

Because people have been taught since who knows when. It's wrong to hit another person, in defense. I know they were not from family tree.
I use Sgt York as an example of pacifism who did what needed to be done in the face of danger, to save his life.
I stress in class, it's something i hope i never need to do, however they need to make a decision. When the flag drops, are you a survivor, or victim?

6. Love your enemies and do good to them that hate and use you - is this not the
despicable philosophy of the spaniel that rolls upon its back when kicked?
7. Hate your enemies with a whole heart, and if a man smite you on one cheek,

SMASH him
on the other!; smite him hip and thigh, for self-preservation is the highest law!
8. He who turns the other cheek is a cowardly dog!
9. Give blow for blow, scorn for scorn, doom for doom - with compound interest
liberally added thereunto! Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, aye four-fold, a hundred-fold!
Make yourself a Terror to your adversary, and when he goeth his way, he will possess
much additional wisdom to ruminate over. Thus shall you make yourself respected in
all the walks of life, and your spirit - your immortal spirit - shall live, not in an
intangible paradise, but in the brains and sinews of those whose respect you have

gained

Sorry, I just had to...

This is too much, going from self defense discussion to religion. Awesome.
