For those who share my tendencies, here is a thought for your fair consideration:
Perfect justice requires perfect knowledge and insight, but perfect mercy requires compassion and the means to convey it.
Which then of the two is easier for me to perform as an individual human being?
I hope you come to the same conclusion as I did.
"Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. Therefore
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." - Romans 12:19-21
