In a world where nobody forgives, you end up with chaos. This is what loving your neighbor actually means ... what did he say, you forgive your neighbor like seven times seventy, or something. Over and over.

Our world needs forgiveness now. We need to forgive one another, and then move on.

It's not actually words that are spoken, it's something deep in the heart. Even if we are not forgiven in return. We are obligated, and our world depends on it. It's not simple ethics, it becomes detrimental. Grudges and pride and all our hot air.

That said, and however, this is not an obligation to allow someone to rule over you, because that's not a neighbor, that is a tyrant.
