    Also, it is very interesting that when Christ was slapped in the face by the Roman Guard, or Officer, (I forget, I'm about to go to bed), that instead of turning the other cheek, he asked why he had been slapped. Did he break his own law ?

    The act of turning the other cheek was an act of defiance in those days.

    That is correct, as is taking off your shirt and throwing at someone who just won your coat.

    I take back the "throwing" part. But you get the spirit of my post.

    Naive.

    If you have the capacity to protect yourself and your family, it may be for a reason.

    So in your view Jesus and Moses would ignore the Word of God?
