Oh boy, did you get a lot of baloney.
I don't believe in Divine Mercy as such, so I guess I would be in the baloney group. I believe in reincarnation, and that when we pass from this plane of existence we are purged of all of our judgments, prejudices etc, and are able to objectively look back upon our previous life. We are then the ones who decide (not judge) what lessons still need to be learned and how best to go about that process (through reincarnation).
Divine Mercy is actually our own mercy to ourselves as we forgive ourselves for our "misdeeds", learn from our mistakes and move on.

It depends on what you mean by the term. Remember the "cruel mercy" of the pagan gods, who were said sometimes to grant the prayers of those who trusted them in such a way as to cause them to wish they'd never asked. We never have to fear that God is like that. He doesn't play games with his toys. . . He loves his children, and gives them good things they didn't even think to ask for.

If the alternative is Divine Justice...it's pretty evident the Divine Mercy is winning, or we would all be dead.

The Divine Mercy message is one we can call to mind simply by remembering ABC:
A - Ask for His Mercy. God wants us to approach Him in prayer constantly, repenting of our sins and asking Him to pour His mercy out upon us and upon the whole world.
B - Be merciful. God wants us to receive His mercy and let it flow through us to others. He wants us to extend love and forgiveness to others just as He does to us.
C - Completely trust in Jesus. God wants us to know that the graces of His mercy are dependent upon our trust. The more we trust in Jesus, the more we will receive.

Siri,
The Bible promises that God is abounding in Mercies, and not willing that anyone should parish. Trust Him as your Savior, He will never leave you, or forsake you !
Be Blessed in Christ Jesus !

Allah said "My Mercy has overcome My Wrath". I very certainly believe that.
