Do Christian Parents Abuse their Children?

[ErGingerbreadMandude]

Whenever I see someone I picture in my head how that person would come at me like he wanted to kill me.. If it's a really tall guy I imagine I'll break his knees first, then fake a leg kick and go for the head or grapple to the ground and go for a choke. If it's a short or medium size guy I'll go in straight with a flying knee to the head because nobody expects that. It's more or less just a pass time and never with any malice behind it but mostly just to make sure it'll be easy to defend myself should it come to it(just in case). That aside, I agree with CL about things relating to marriage, it's pretty common for our people to go work abroad, our church now demands that anyone that wants to marry and work abroad needs to provide a certificate that they have no relations/marriage in the country they are working in to get married in our church.

You'll probably just die.  Initiative is everything. 

The first strike is often regarded as very important by some people. Most people acting tough will back out in a jiffy if the first strike is a strong one. The thing is though I always try to neutralize a situation instead of escalating, it usually stops at that, most of the time when people try to pick fights it's about their ego, I don't find it unbearable to back off, I'm sure most people consider it in their mind as a sort of "haha what a loser", I don't mind that, as far as I'm concerned I'm giving him an opportunity to walk away with his ego intact and people that know me closely know that as well. Sometimes though, walking away doesn't do the trick, it's acceptable to use force at that point but the added benefit is nobody goes tits out at a guy that's trying to walk away from a fight and it usually starts with some light pushing so while they are technically initiating I'll have the privilege to deliver the first shot and it will be fair for both of us since he knows I'll be defending myself at that point. Most people don't realize how easy it is to kill someone, they look at movie scenes and see beer bottles breaking on the head of people but even that is enough to kill someone because it could easily result in a deep enough cut and glass could go inside leaving a person in a coma for life. There's a lot of risk while getting in a fight especially regarding the safety of the opponent, while it may be very easy to win fights, even knocking people out can result in deaths by them hitting their head on the road too hard, a few broken bones and lifetime in prison is just not worth it over a 1 min dispute and ego saving. Better to always walk away and not initiate anything.
