On Anger, Spilled Blood, Questions & Answers

"Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground."



With regard to Old Testament Perspectives, here are the Five Key Questions Worthy of Consideration, that go way back to the beginning or genesis of things, when it comes to anger, murder, and blood crying out from the ground:

“Why are you angry?" 

"Why is your face downcast?"

"If you do what is right, will you not be accepted?

“Where is your brother?"

What have you done?"

When I read of these being asked up front, in the third story recorded by Moses, following the first two known as The Creation, and The Fall, I wonder if it's the responsibility of all humans to sort through and own their thoughts and emotional responses, and form honest responses?

It's a truism most men can't take a life. Only about 10% can. The dividing line is between good and evil. The Rangers and the SS.

It all comes down to conscience.
