Subject: RE: BS: The 'moral' Atheist?
I've always thought that the "eye for an eye" quote has been taken out of context. It doesn't mean that you are justified to take an eye for an eye. It means that an eye is the maximum you can take in retaliation. It dosn't mean you should - it just gives you a limit.
