Hard question: is it a sin to hit a man who hit a woman?

  • Is it a sin for a man to hit another man if that man hit a woman?

The hosts take up a listener question relayed from a man exploring Christianity: is it a sin for a man to hit another man who hit a woman? Opinions split — one host says do whatever it takes to protect, drawing the line at retaliation after the fact; another argues assault in any form is overdoing it and suggests restraint, calling police, or sitting on the person instead. The debate veers through concealed carry, pliers, nose tweaks, and knife jabs before settling on the difference between stopping violence and seeking revenge.
