A ceremony of washing another person's feet.

Thursday night, Jesus and his disciples had The Last Supper and Jesus washed feet at one point.

I did not know that, obviously important point of his mission.

No. Keeping a grudge is like letting someone live in your head for free, no rent or anything. Or something I like that. It's what I read some time ago somewhere and had to agree on.
Carl Sagan, astrophysicist and atheist wrote:"Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.
When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages,
when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling,
that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual...
The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually exclusive does a disservice to both."

Revenge is not. Justice is.

Probably the most sensible answer I'll receive. Then, if I may ask, when does seeking justice become seeking revenge?
