Aren't you "asking" to be persecuted? : A Practitioner Replies Question: I believe Falun Gong's principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance" will benefit people infinitely; however, isn't it the same if you practise at home? You suffered inhuman persecution just because you felt you must strive for a [acceptable] public and legal environment. Aren't you "asking" to be persecuted? Answer: For example, a thief steals your wallet. He brutally beats you because you asked him to return the wallet. Then someone says, "It's OK if it's stolen. It's your fault for wanting it back. Didn't you ask for the beating?" Isn't this a type of "thug logic?" Degenerated notions make people feel that persisting in the truth and fighting the evil is unnecessary, unwise and even detestable--because it disturbs the superficial peace. Should the evil be allowed to bully all people like yearling lambs? If that becomes true, how horrible would people's life environment become? Where would society's morality be?
