It references biblical scripture to support the idea that Christianity involves both rebuke and forgiveness. The tone is somewhat sarcastic, suggesting a critique of a simplistic understanding of Christianity.

    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.

  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement attempts to engage with religious teachings, which could promote understanding, but the sarcastic tone may undermine this effort.
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
