   You have the old law and you have the new law. That is, the old   
   testament and the new testament. It makes for a big difference. The   
   Qakers and the Amish are followers of Christ, and as you might know, he   
   advocated  Love and not " an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth",   
   as the way. so Please dont let your personal resentment cloud your   
   mind. Its not good for you. Or your Children.

   seems he convinced you already. " this pile of steaming offal"   
   will not be considered a peace offer either by the Jews or by the   
   Christians.   
      
   Try again, "buddhist".
