Turning the other Cheek can Bring Happiness?

This life can be very hard sometimes. WE all go through struggles that we sometimes wish we did not have to face, for example: Somebody comes up to you and starts calling you all kinds of names which you really had no idea why, or maybe somebody was being ignorant and did somethings to you. In these times of trials some people would be mad and "Smite" (or in other words retaliate back with something worse.) while other people will harbor anger and hatred for a long time while other people would do as Christ taught them and that is to turn the other cheek. The scripture that I am referring to is Matthew 5:38-39 the Sermon on the Mount.                                                                
38 "¶Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
39 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also."

The Savior is telling us to be kind to our enemies, even though they might not deserve it.

Epic Guild (Part 2)-- The Restoration


Cataclysm drags on and the casuals have completely disbanded the epic guild. The GM has not logged on for ages, and the officers are no longer on the server. It seems like there is no hope left. People are confused, and it seems like new raiding guilds pop up almost everyday, spamming trade chat to try and recruit raiders. With all this confusion what would a newly dinged level 85 do? Does he risk trying to join one of these sub par guilds, and subject himself to nights of fail and repeated wipes? Probably not.

The GM logs back on
Time continues to go on, and miraculously one day the GM logs back on. Instead of inviting fully-epiced out level 85s the GM starts to /who players who are under the level cap. These people are basically noobs (I mean come on its been this long into the expansion and you're not even 85!), but he knows they are humble, and devoted, and that he can mold them into the officer core that he needs. Time goes on, and the guild starts to progress. All the officer core has been trained in the ways of raiding from a pro GM, they have a solid guild, and its time to recruit. Many people are unsure about the guild. The officers get questions like,"Aren't you that one guy that was spamming trade asking where your class trainer is?" or "Weren't you the noob I qued into a heroic with in greens and pvp gear?" But the guild has a way for everyone to resolve their concerns. It is to try it out. See for yourself if it works. And then if you're good enough, and can make the commitment, you can join up.

Christ's Church Fell into Apostasy

As mentioned in the previous part to this blog (Epic Guild (Part 1) --The Apostasy), Christ's Church fell into a state of apostasy after Christ's apostles died...

Epic Guild (Part 1) -- Apostasy


Imagine for a second that you're in an epic raiding guild. You have the best guild leader, and class officers. No one stands in fire, or goes AFK randomly. Healing and tanking are spot on, and the dps literally nuke bosses. You've cleared all content, and of course have downed heroic Ragnaros. Besides all that your guild also gets along. There's no loot drama, and players take advice without emo-raging.
Precarious Situation is Precarious
Then slowly the epic guild loses its leetness. For starters your guild master decides to leave WoW for a bit, due to drama on the server and massive amounts of hate on the forums. He of course leaves the guild in the hands of the competent officers that he's carefully selected. Thats fair enough. He also still pops in from time to time to see how everything is going, but slowly things start to go downhill.

With peple hating on the GM do you think that the officers would be free from hate too?
