If "God" has taken all you know and love from you, do you as a man (or woman) have the right of vengence?
If God has taken all you love...do you have the right to act
Well I do not believe in God but let assume he does exist for the pourpose of answering your question. God's nature is believed to be "goodness". That means that everything god does is for your own sake. therefore if god has taken away from you all what you know and care about it might be for good. So from that point of view you do NOT have the right of vengence. That is a pretty good deductive reasoning I think. What do you thing?

I don't think you ever have a right to commit violence except in immediate defense of yourself or others. That said, I personally would not convict someone who performed an act of vengence like you are thinking about. "Right"? I'm not really sure what that means, ya know.
But anyway, that's my thought on it. (which might change without a moments notice...

Events have happened recently that have made me re-evaluate my own self. I have lost more dearly than I care to talk about. I just wish someone would show me a good reason for not doing the things I want to do.
yeah...cryptic huh?

I don't know what happened, Max, but will it change anything except make YOU feel better? Who ever was hurt will not get better for your revenge. Would the person hurt even appreciate the revenge? What I mean is, my loved ones would feel worse if they knew I did something to "avenge" them.
Anyway, IM me if you ever want to chat.

I believe that even if the worst thing happened to you you should still thank God as He knows what is good for you and He has a very clear idea of where and what He wants you to be.
It is a matter of faith and hope.

Thank you for your valuable insight, but I never meant vengence on God, and yes it is my problem.
