Do you even summary bro?

ETA: Let me help you out;

quote:

A minister in Valley Center, Kan. defended himself and his family on Sunday morning by shooting a would-be intruder in the head. The suspect, Cory Landon, sustained a graze wound to the forehead and was picked up by police while walking down the road in a rural area just north of Wichita.

Good for him. Didn't kill the guy, but I guarantee his thieving career will take a short break.

I don't think the biblical passage says anything about needing to offer up the cheeks of your wife and kids.

I can't blame him for defending himself or protecting his family

Sounds like he needs to spend some more time at the range.

nice job taking scripture out of context. There is absolutely nothing wrong with trying to defend your life property and others.

turn the other cheek is against using revenge for harmful acts, not letting someone kill you when you could have defended your life.

I'm not sure where you're going with that little postscript. Are you implying that protecting one's wife and children from a criminal who breaks into your home is somehow un-Christian? That the Christian thing to do would be to let the criminal terrorize your children and possibly rape your wife? Is that your point? If not, what is your point?

Turning the other cheek is about not seeking vengeance against someone, because the Lord says vengeance is His. The minister was defending his family against a thief, pretty sure that's okay.

What's wrong with you liberals?

The preacher must be either terrible or a damn fine marksman with a pistol.

So to you," turn the other cheek" means that a Christian should allow thieves to break into their homes and put their families at risk without doing anything about it? You should probably refrain from trying to interpret scripture.
