RE: Have We Acquiesced Violence???

in #peace7 years ago (edited)

I agree that violence is something that is intrinsicaly bad, and no one should evere commit acts of violence, but what about and selfless acts of violence, like that buddist monk that set himself on fire in 63 as a protest against oppression in Vietnam?

And what about acts of violence as a result of your own life defense (or others life)? I am a peaceful person, but i would definetly do something violent if its the last option to preserve my family life or my own...

Yes you are right but self defense is different from atrocity. Atrocities are intentional not accidental. What you say is accidents not intentions.
