You two shitheads are embarrassing yourselves.
The OT was based on an "eye for an eye" whereas your xtian shit is supposedly based on "turning the other cheek" not that you fuckers ever follow that one.
This bunch of xtian shits at least knows what they are talking about.

Quote:4. Eye for an Eye or Turn the Other Cheek
Perhaps the most commonly felt difference between the Old and New Testaments relates to the balance between justice and mercy. Under the Old Testament law, there was a strong emphasis on justice and the punishments to be levelled at those who committed crimes. Oft quoted is the phrase “an eye for an eye”, which comes from the Law of Moses which had punishments equivalent to the crime,
Leviticus 24:19: "If a man injures his neighbor, just as he has done, so it shall be done to him: 20. fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; just as he has injured a man, so it shall be inflicted on him. WEB
In the New Testament, Jesus refers to this aspect of the law, and directs his followers in a different direction.
Matt 5:38: "You have heard that it was said, `An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' 39. But I tell you, don't resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
