Very often people object that nonviolence seems to imply passive acceptance of injustice and evil and therefore that it is a kind of cooperation with evil. Not at all. The genuine concept of nonviolence implies not only active and effective resistance to evil but in fact a more effective resistance...
But the resistance which is taught in the Gospel is aimed not at the evil-doer but at evil in its source.

Kalle!
Tack för HBT-bibeln! Låt din tro aldrig rubbas! Notera att dina negativa kommentörer inte givit en enda kritiserande tankegång bara sagt att de inte håller med. Med detta har de bara förstärkt dina texter!
Tack för stödet!
