      @@SuperNuclearUnicornI certainly don’t know everything and I understand what you’re saying completely, but my perspective is that God created a perfect world which was without sin. He also made humans with free will as with that, there would be no true love. He wouldn’t make robots to love him he would want it to be a choice. Therefore when humans first sinned it made the world itself sinful. It’s not that God wanted it this way, but instead that it had to be this way.

    Any fans of The Behaviour Panel? What a different missing child appeal to some of the cases they go through where the parents have guilty knowledge! They mentioned the boy’s name constantly, appealed to whoever has him and talked about him in present tense with a clear expectation of meeting him again. Such a heartbreaking case and my thoughts go out to everyone involved xx

      There are also senses and abilities the human mind and body cannot detect in nature, making death seem profoundly terminal when it could be just the beginning for all we know.
      There is a better world than this. That is why we still do good, despite knowing that this world belongs to the reign of monsters.

    The purpose of the revenge films is to act as a release for the audience. As an SA victim, movies about a protagonist getting revenge on their r*pist/s is a sort of validation that what you went through was wrong and that you didn't deserve it. But it isn't like the movie is intended to be something for you to replicate. It is so that you don't have to. That was some people's critic of promising young woman- that it didn't give people that successful revenge ending and that they were too caught up in trying to depict realism.
    But you are so right- revenge is nothing compared to the sustaining healing power of helping others. So if you are a victim of something, work on being an advocate and support for other victims and the prevention of other victims.

      I'm going to assume that you are talking about real things- like perhaps the torture and beheading of your innocent child. But even then, do you really want revenge? You actually want it to have never happened, and eventually perhaps, for it to have been worth something. I think that is why a lot of victims end up starting charities and awareness foundations, etc.

    Anyone else but me notice the respect people have for law enforcement in Canada. I watch tons of true crime. All the Canadian interrogations and investigations, the level of cooperation between departments, ....are just so much better in Canada. Police in the United States hold press conferences it's always rare, and it's almost at an adversary level. Canadian press releases always are done professionally. Done with care for the victims. They share what they can. They don't hold back. They answer questions. They don't just say no comment over and over or hide answers. They answer in ways you get your answer without the words said. I really respect how they work. The differences they have from the US are quite evident and the differences matter. The departments are layered and have multiple levels always working with each other and there is not this automatic distrust that they have here. I used to hate videos on anything other than the US. Now I brace Canadian investigations.

    Retaliation is one of the most primitive responses we have and goes back many thousands of years. It’s your mind saying I don’t want to be hurt in this way again ever. When one party wins an encounter you want retaliation so you don’t lose again. Other animals have the same response. They remember a face and exact revenge.
