we've got a minivan... but I also have three siblings, so we kinda need it
sooo like I said, just whatever we need.

and with 4 of you it makes sense.

Well this is not a very Christian, or god faring response, but one of my flaws is I'd want revenge, an eye for an eye in that case, especially if it was my mom, dad, sister, wife or daughter. Unless it was an accident of course. You?

I'd make sure they got what they deserved, in the sense of like their sentence in jail or whatever. and then I'd probably be really mad at them, obviously... but eventually I'd let it go. anger and hatred, and negativity in general, just aren't good to keep inside you.

 

[808Metal]

I would hate to think what would happen if anyone murdered or molested my daughter. that person had better stay far far away from me. Not that I'm a bad ass or anything, but I think I'd lose it and be out for blood.

well mini vans are useful, they have their place, it's juts what I would not want for myself.

yea, that makes sense.

and with 4 of you it makes sense.

exactly.

I know, and agree with that. We are supposed to forgive and not take vengeance. But I am flawed in that way. It's just truly who I am. I don't know if I could change that.

yea, I can understand that... especially with you, being a parent. that would be just a horrible situation.

 

[808Metal]

OK, my turn, would you give up your life to save another? Not necessarily just anyone, say a sibling, loved one.

you can always change, no matter how hard... it just takes A LOT of work.

true. you are right. I'd probably go to my pastor and church for support.

definately. their life's worth more than mine, imo. and plus, if I didn't, I know I wouldn't be able to live with that kind of guilt, it'd nearly eat me alive.

yep, i mean she (my daughter) will always be my baby, that little thing I held in my arms, who was totally dependent on us. It's just different than the bond you have with anyone else.

true. you are right. I'd probably go to my pastor and church for support.

good idea. but more importantly... pray and ask God Himself.

good point, the guilt would be horrible, it would be no life living with that. And yes i'd do the same.

yea, exactly. I can only imagine what that's like.

I would, but I think human interaction with people like that would really help as well. Someone to call and talk to when it got real hard. Not to say that god is not sufficient of course...
