The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing -Edmund Burke
Hebrews 3:13
1 Thessalonians 4:18

that is world's standard.

Jesus says let the dead bury their own dead. You need to read sermon on the mount, Lon.

Here you go Lon:

Luke 6:27-36 King James Version)

27But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
28Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
29And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.
30Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.
31And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32For if ye love them which love you what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. 33And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34And if ye to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.
36Be ye therefore merciful, as your Fatheralso is merciful.

I don't think so: Romans 12:21 Luke 26:27-30

I think you are meaning not to repay evil for evil, NOT to do nothing, as Edmund Burke said not to do. Doing good is doing something.


After reading your second post, I think you agree too. Edmund Burke wasn't saying 'fight' he was saying do something and don't ignore it. Speaking against something is peaceable. Sanctions are peaceable.

I think we agree more than disagree here.

Ok, it sounded like we should fight back.

thanks:)
