He was not at all a bullied doormat! He spoke before the rulers who were to judge Him, and they could find no fault.

Have you missed the element of the Gospel that is Him laying down His life willingly?
EXACTLY! That's what you're supposed to do, not kill the people who would take your life. BE. LIKE. CHRIST.

As you said, having a weapon is a deterrent.
You are exactly right, but this person realizes that if you do point a weapon at someone, you better be ready to use it. If someone tries to call your bluff, if you are disarmed, situation can be 100 times worse with possibility of more than just you being hurt or killed.

Well, now you're just trolling.
Call it whatever you want to, baby, I ain't too impressed by stupid internet terms, such as trolls, spam, etc. If I am a troll, so be it. You mean it as an insult, I frankly couldn't care less, I'll even take it as a compliment if you want me to. Pay toll to the troll!:D

You find the statement that you are giving arguments that are too stupid to ever be believed to be a positive thing?

Also notice the one being condemned as not following Christ, is following Christ better in this situation. Oh the irony ...

(Apache has not attempted murder, nor has he turned psychopath. However his detractors have resorted to flaming. Things to make ya go hmmm)

If believing that protecting myself and my family and friends and law-abiding people in general is stupid, then by golly I'm the biggest dumb-ass in history!!!!!

I wasn't flaming him. I'm just pointing out that he's either an idiot or a troll.

No, that's not stupid. In fact, from a non-Christian point of view, it's very smart. What is stupid is saying you're a Christian and then using things like a Kenny Rogers song to justify non-Christian attitudes. If you'd care to have a scriptural debate rather than a discographical cone, we can proceed from the assumption that you are not a troll.

This idiot or troll or whatever you want to call me has probably a helluva lot more degrees than you have, but even if I don't, sticks and stones may break my bones, but Hawisher's breath will never hurt me!

I'm sure you do. Would you care to use those more numerous degrees in an attempt to prove that New Testament theology justifies violence?

Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn about what you think of me, my analogies, or if I'm a troll or ork or dwarf or elf-lord or whatever. I could say a few choice morsels about you as well, but choose not too. Keep dissing me, Hawisher or Hawkeye or whatever.

Hey Sunshine, for someone that supposedly is such a peace-loving pacifist, you sure are prickly and abrasive. I love that sexy looking "angry yuck-face" symbol for your mood! Temper, temper.

Would you care to actually debate the topic?
Yes, when you stop calling me an idiot, maybe. You can call me a troll or elf-lord or hobbit or whatever, but when you call me an idiot, I want to run to mommy and cry and tell on you what a naughty you've been. Seriously, write what you want to and I write what I want to, no problem there. Next......

Actually, several of your posts here could easily be labelled flaming, not just this one quoted here.

This however:

I found to be amusing :D

sticks and stones may break my bones, but Hawisher's breath will never hurt me!

I dunno, I've gotten too close to some people's who's breath should be registered as a WMD. (And btw, your language can earn you infractions, might want to do some editing)

Really? Huh. I need to stop using spacebattles standards, then.

I sincerely apologize for calling you an idiot, Apache. Now, what would you say is the scriptural support for acting violently in self-defense?
