Two wrongs don't make a right- but three lefts do!
Chances are, if two wrongs made a right, then something wasn't wrong- it may be simply a matter of perception, as many people have differing ideas on wrong and right. Look at the results. Even if the way to get somewhere was wrong, it does not mean that the end result is wrong. Still, taking that course of action is dangerous, and can end up in some dreadful situations (see Iraq).
Could two rights make a wrong? Two rights, if they are not the best solutions, but are minimally correct, can allow wrong to flourish.
So, two best-possible solutions eliminate the possibility of wrong (though the chances of that are almost none), but two solutions that are merely not-wrong (which what is usually considered right) create a situation that does not stop wrong from occurring...
Does that help any?

I use this argument: If we assume that right=right and left=wrong then due to the fact that three lefts make a right then three wrongs make a right. So what I am saying is take revenge, and overdo it. That way the person who wronged you will either be incapable of ever wronging you again or they will know the consequences of wronging you.

I respond by saying, "No, two wrongs don't make a right, but four rights make a circle." It usually confuses them enough and shuts them up. I hate that phrase. It's too cliche.

Why is it straight away earnings the "different element" to not forgive? this is an completely subjective element as Christians do have faith that not kicking the **** out of somebody or continually getting a painful revenge advantages them. yet thats yet another rely altogether, all i will say is interior the obtrusive experience it dosent continually earnings somebody because of the fact it could boost!

I would only go that route if I disagrees with my friend's assessment to throw that curve ball into the conversation. I then would follow-up with my feelings on the subject.

I think: Two rights might make a wrong too.
