Why is it that for some people, Christians are most famous for being judgmental hypocrites? Is this fair? And should Christians even pass judgment on non-christian society, by boycotting the Jerry Springer Opera or burning the Koran?

We continue on from last weeks discussion of "An Eye for an Eye" to try and get our heads rounds sayings like "Turn the Other Cheek" and "Walk the Extra Mile". Because it turns out that Jesus calls us to be generous to others. So generous in fact, that some people might call it ridiculous.
