Are you a forgiving person? Can you forgive someone that physically tortured you over and over..

[WorldofWarcraft]

Let's say you're un-killable. You die, then you come back to life instantly. The government found out about this and decided they wanted to use your body for experimentation without your consent.

They kidnap you, strap you to a table, then a few surgeons operate on you. Try to kill you the most painful way possible. The surgeons kill you over and over and over... day in, day out, 7 days a week.

Another one of your kind decides to break you out of the facility and he wants to kill the surgeons. Would you stop him from killing these same men who had no regard for you, cut you open, pull your eyes out, jam rusty shit inside your pee hole, etc...

Reason I'm asking is because there's a series on Netflix called Ajin, and this is basically the plot. What intrigues me is that this seems to be a recurring theme in Japanese shows. And they do it in a way where it seems that this forgiving shit for the most fucked up shit possible is seemingly considered a normal thing to do over there.

I'm watching Berserk movie on Netflix now and the same shit happened. Motherfuckers tried to kill Guts, then the next day he just gets up and walks with these same motherfuckers like they didn't try to rob and kill his ass.

Screencap from the aforementioned torture scene.

I cant say for this scenario,but i think human beings deep down want to forgive people because hatred is a burden. I know people who cling to it like luggage,and sometimes there isnt going back,but its not something you should want to have. Itd be better to move on,if possible.

 

[ClubFoot]

I hang onto grudges like a mo fo. The hatred eats away at me and I die a little every day from it.

That's just one of my few good points.

I am not a forgiving person. I can easily cut people out of my life and it doesn't bother me at all. It really bothered me when I used to try to forgive and still be around those who have wronged me.

 

[ObsoleteSoul]

Hell no I don't stop. It's both personal and for the common good. They will pick up another poor soul and do the same to them, so I'm kind of stopping a future tragedy.

 

[HHJ]

well its a different situation when the person is in your circle and you have common friends. You WANNA hash it out but pride is a motherfucker.

 

[tehend]

Not sure why forgiveness is so important.

 

[IAC]

A fantasy scenario like that in the OP is not even needed lol. There are histories of WWII POWs that after being tortured for years they still forgave their torturers personally.

By the way I don't feel like I would be so forgiving.

I am exactly the same.

But I do hold a grudge like no one I have ever met.

I just get even
Like the chick who cheated on me with a friend, I ended up banging her little sister. Booooooy did that get even. 14 years later she STILL hates me for that more than I hated her for cheating on me. In fact, I pretty much never gave her a second thought after taking her hotter younger sister to pound town all summer.

I would have no problem with getting some revenge. Actions have consequences, and "Hi, I'm Consequences."

 

[bigbangspiritbomb]

Maybe eventually at my death bed. I would want to fuck Em up for awhile though.

 

[HHJ]

revenge served cold is one of lifes greatest pleasures

 

[Mike]

Nah in that scenario I would ask if we had time to kill them slowly.


Also gutz went with the Band of the Hawk because he lost a bet by losing to Griffith.

 

[Michaelangelo]

in Bad Lieutenant (the original) a nun forgives her rapists

I on the other hand have no sympathy for rapists and they deserve to die

[LATEXXX COMMANDO]

Am I a forgiving person? I would say so, especially as I get older.

I don't feel like hanging onto that extra baggage if its unnecessary. I don't need that shit.

However, for the situation you posted, I would definitely kill them.

7 days a week with tools being shoved in my dick until I die? Oh yeah, they're dead.

 

[Pixelated Porn]

I think as I walked away from his still alive but buried body I could just about forgive anything...other than not letting go of my fucking Eggo. That is mine!

 

[HomeRun916]

I forgive you for making me read ALL OF THAT.

 

[M3t4tr0n]

Oh yeah i would kill the shit out of them
