Wilkie Collins, in The Moonstone, Part 29:

Miss Clark affectionately reminds Mr. Franklin Blake that she is a Christian and that it is therefore quite impossible to offend her.

The self-styled “Christians” we have in the States seem to delight, no, wallow in, even seek out, offense.

Then, again, theirs is a religion of “an eye for an eye.”

I forget.

Is that in Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John?

Oh, yeah, it was Hammurabi.
