”Forgive”, not “apologize”.
He also said this in context of either the Christian brethren, or related brother.
Should this be extended to all humanity?
That’s certainly the argument that the church puts out. If someone commits murder, then, we should forgive him and be sure that nothing happens. If someone rapes a child and steals all its mother’s money, we should forgive him and ensure that nothing happens. If these things are happening 18 times a month we should forgive him at least 490 times and ensure that nothing happens
Somehow, I suspect that this interpretation is not correct, as even secular law is often better than that.
Totally agree. The law as given makes no sense - unless you understand it as a code of conduct between TRIBESMEN - or between religious brothers. When you understand the idea of a social contract between people who are part of a small group/city/tribe/religious group then it makes a lot more sense. Bet when it is extended to the whole world/nonbelievers/bad hombres/etc. then it doesn't apply the same. I made another relevant comment in this threat you may like as well.
Whoever is doing the downvoting should explain their point.
