Thanks Heather. What always gets lost in these fusillades is that it's important for us to have rationale discussions about what constitutes compassion and mercy. Is mercy always a passive thing as would be suggested by our religious leaders - something to be blamed one or passed off to a higher power? That certainly makes it easier on us. I don't have the answers but it's something worthy of discussion.
Excellent! I'm going to add it to my post.
