Even while being tortured and hanging on the cross one of the last sentences that he said was "Forgive them father, for they know not what they do" about the men who murderered him.

Maybe I missed Sunday school the day Jesus was hanging from the cross and hollered, "SNITCHES GET STITCHES **+**ES! JUST WAIT UNTIL YOU GET SERVED YOUR COLD DISH OF REVENGE!"

Please explain how I am confused about this one Duckman...
Not trying to start a fight with you by no means and if it came off as so I apologize.
I explained that I am not what most would call a typical Christian. I don't even go to church. I do believe there is a balance to be kept though. I know exactly what you are refering to and do I think that person would have made the same choice as an adult? No not at all. Some wrongs need to be righted though. Who's to say those spikes didn't teach him a lesson that later on saved his life? Not saying I'm right just saying some things happen for a reason no matter if we like it or not. Like I said earlier. Even God had angels for not so pleasant things.
