Listening to judges debate justice the only reason we don't chop off hands and have capital punishment is because we take the examples of turning the other cheek, there being good in everyone and the promise of eternal judgment into account.

We do have capital punishment, is that from an eye for an eye, or might there be a much better explanation, layed out in some other book somewhere, with the authority to command a court of law? Same with the chopping of hands. We aren;t turning any cheek, and often those who would have their hands chopped off in some theocratic hellhole get their cheeks turned in jail precisely because we didn't turn ours.
You're starting to erode the distinguishing characteristics between yourself and the full blown nuts Frods, with that last comment. Do we have to beat you back into your cave too...aren't our hands already full? Is this the tip of the spear, the first shot of a fifth column?
