What I seel is justice. If I'm wrong, then The Catholic Church has also had it wrong for the past 2,000 years.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to remind you of the words of St Didacus as he refuted The Bad Thief on Calvalry; "This Man (Jesus) has done no wrong, but <B>we are getting what we deserve</B>..."Kevin Whitemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019976622801954677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-63700489299767160692007-10-10T18:08:00.000-05:002007-10-10T18:08:00.000-05:00The thing I find most distressing about your posit...The thing I find most distressing about your position is that you shorten any chance of repentance and redemption for the perpetrator.

I did, however, use the word "expect" twice.<BR/><BR/>You see, I most certainly do <B>expect</B> that my generic "neighbor" (everyone) to be held to the same standard that I hold for myself. <BR/><BR/>Isn't that exactly what "love thy neighbor <B>as thyself</B> means?<BR/><BR/>BTW, you were pointing how others look upon your neighbor... I was pointing to how I look upon him.
