Haha good, me too! Otherwise I wouldn't bother engaging with you. My point is that a society that values forgiveness is going to do better than one based on strict "eye for an eye"
Forgiveness is both under-appreciated and misunderstood.
We need to get this cog re-engaged in public discourse.
Punishment achieves almost nothing restitution can.
But what if they're an "animal"? Where's the line between animal and person? Do animals become people when the harmed individual forgives them?
