What exactly is violence?

[awediot]

Fair enough. I respect your efforts and see their sucess would lead to a kinder world. The ideas of cruelty, abuse, exploitation, simple meanness and thoughtlessness I wiil continue to emphasize as causes of pain,and sinful, but steps to becoming violent. Hopefully we can meet in the middle of a more loving and peaceful place.

Though I have no intentions of being contrary for its own sake, I am quite inquisitive as to peoples' logic behind thier conclusions. I am a Christian, but not because the Bible tells me so. It tells me some pretty nonsensical things I've been forced to ask Why. Ironically, Scripture is a pointless argument to those who need it most, as they believe it the least... and I have yet begun to stump.
