Do you see those who do evil as victims themselves? Your answer may depend on your political persuasion. Conservatives call for individual accountability, and liberals look for underlying causes. People tend toward one approach or the other, but they are not necessarily exclusive. You can stand for truth and righteousness and still be sympathetic toward those who have taken the wrong path. The Bible teaches both mercy and justice. It gives a perfect standard of conduct, and offers a way for redemption for those who have strayed, including you. Follow me that you may do and teach both principles.
