Defending your family is an action in itself, you don't have to do it with hatred in your heart. If I where to run after the guy after my family was safe and bludgeon him to death that would be wrong for instance.
I do understand what you mean and agree ... I think it would be wrong for me and completely against my own personal nature to go beyond defending my family as well as a handful of ppl that I love. I can't see that I would care to, especially as a woman, run after someone once my sons were safe. :yes:
I was just curious as I have actually heard some say that Jesus' message meant "taking it" from others (to the extreme, that is) ... but really, they seem to be few and far between.
