It is a complex topic on a few levels and I find that there is a lot of conflict within, especially when it comes to the 'religious' aspects of it where often the people most bent on revenge are the religious. Not always though of course but I find this contrary to their belief in a god who will punish the guilty in the after life. Perhaps it is impatience.
With all of the nonsense in the world however, I think it is a topic worth investigating for the individual rather than blindly supporting whatever societal view is held. Doing that leads to similar psychological positioning as honor killings and the like.
I used to watch a lot of foreign language films in Australia but hardly ever now.
Yeah my main crux with some religious people is the notion of punishment/avoiding punishment being much more important than actual reasoning.
Speaking of punishment, I would really appreciate if you could give me an opinion about my most recent post. I want to start flagging a Rep 60 spammer, but I might sound very tiki-torchy in this post.
