Never has the world needed love and forgiveness so much as now. But I also must uphold the ideals of my beloved country and family. If an aggressor ever came here to destroy my family or this country and America needed my help to defend her and retaliate, I would give it- for the love of the people, and to defend the nation on whose land I live. We should do our part to help protect America if you live here, and all those we love in our homes, but at the same time, we must not allow ourselves to be filled with revenge and hatred. A defense plan is good right now, but it will not bring ultimate peace.

If anyone came to "destroy" or "take over" America it would be karma.

Spirituality is not a belief system or ideology, it is the surrender of one's ego to the infinite wisdom and knowledge that is the universe.

lots of good thoughts here regarding this potentially explosive issue..and while i am a firm believer in karma, when it comes to revenge, i prefer to center my focus on evaluating and controlling my responses..and viewing it as an opportunity to examine what i need to do to overcome the need to have it, justify it etc..making peace with it and not letting it do further damage is what i've learned i need to do.

I generally subscribe to the idea that revenge is a waste of time and that it's 1000 x better to just move on to something positive.

Now revenge fantasies are another stories. It is fun and sometimes therapeutic to go back and forth with a trusted friend about what I'd *like* to do

That is not revenge, that is self defense. Big difference between revenge and defending yourself.
