This world consists of mostly bad people while only a few fraction of them are good. Violence is a very hard thing in life, to kill or hurt someone when the other not deserves to be is wrong.
If someone provokes me saying things to have a quarrel I do not start the same with them too as i think that let dogs bark , we are not listening to them.
but these people must be punished bcoz they further get courage to do ill deeds like fighting, killing , murdering etc.

Never do harm to anyone as we are all children of God. God would not like to see His creation at loggerheads with each other. He is our peace loving heavenly father.

Hi ajithlal, I think it is not right to make violence. I love peaceful world as well as to see everyone to get together friendly and intimately. We are born to enjoy happy and peaceful life but we heat to see wars happen to be occurred every here and there. So it's not good and wise to make violence which would hurt as well as to bring damages people as well as the constructions and etc.
Yeah, I believe God really wish to see us all to live a happy life with love and peace all the time.
Happy posting

Hi ajithlal, thanks for the BR I know this when seeing your, this comment from the notification. Again the BR notification doesn't work again for quite sometime. I think I should reset the whole thing again. Hoping that to restore it as usual. Yeah, peaceful life would make us happy and comfortable all the time. Just don't understand why many still want to create violence. I think war is the great violence that countless of casualties suffer from it

While I don't agree with using violence over every little stupid thing (like hitting people if they looked at you in a manner that you perceive to be hostile), if someone's trying to break into your house and harm you or your family, then by all means, let them have it. There are instances in which violence is perfectly justified.
Yes, God told us to love, but he also gave us common sense as well. If your life is in danger, then may God have mercy on this aggressor's soul, because I wouldn't.

well said, coolcoder! I believe we have a right to defend ourselves if we need to but there is not reason to lash out at someone for a look or perceived slight. I'm always shaking my head at the gang members who shoot someone for walking on their turf or 'disrespecting' them. and usually the disrespect is not meant for ill at all.
In a perfect world, we would all get along, as the saying goes. but unfortunately, not everyone wants to get along with their neighbors or even their relatives these days!

No, it is not right at all to use violence. Nowadays, countries are spending massive amounts of money in order to kill innocent people... it's pretty sad. And usually, it's a for a dumb reason as well.

God is love. The Bible tells us so. Love is the most powerful thing in the world. If everyone were to love one another, there would be no violence. There is a lot of violence being done in the name of God. It is wrong. There are many of us who live to love one another. We are a buffer zone against all evil. Join the group and make us stronger. It is pleasing to the one and only true God.

I believe in violence ONLY as a form of self defence. For example, I'm walking downtown in the early hours of the morning. It's dark, and someone attacks me. If I have to get voilent to fight off my attacker I will, however I will not just go and attack someone for no reason.

I hate violence in any form. I always did.
Physical violence is hard, but words can be as hurtful.
I think people get too wrapped up in things that aren't important and loose track of what life is supposed to be.
WHich is sad.

no ajithlal its certainly not right to be mean and unkind to
'people. God wants to love one another, not be violent and
hateful. I really think if we all lived by the golden rule
do unto others as you would have them do unto you we would
all be so much happier, it would be a great loving world'
Again. just imagine peace and harmony not war.

God didn't want us to have fight but what he wants us to be a little bit aggressive so that we don't get depressed by others. So, if anyone is hitting you, then you can't be silent and let him beat you, you have to beat him in response.
So, you can't say that God only teaches us love, he also teaches us to have voilence also.
Recall that a lion has to use voilence to feed himself, isn't ti?

I really don`t think that God would use something out of us coz I believe he is our God. It is not right to do violence and I dont think its a right to do that either. Anyways, who would want to have violence all the time to the point that he or she would insist on becoming it as your right. Me as a person would believe that God would not want us to have the right to violence.
