I value justice as much as mercy but I think it very much depends on the situation. If being merciful is the right thing and beneficial to all obviously mercy I would rate higher. But you can probably give example for justice being more valuable.

@cucupp Exactly.

@Madeleine if you don't mind why did u ask this question? is there are specific reason or a specific situation in mind

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@cucupp No, but I think it's a topic that hasn't been talked about well enough.

@Madeleine to some extent i agree but isn't it what is being discussed in death penalty cases or in religious circles?

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@cucupp It can be applied to this, but it's about all kinds of crimes in general.

@Madeleine thats true, for me the reason it is difficult to talk about it is due to the nature of the crime. As i said before its difficult to say which one is valuable without any context.
But good question, was interesting to see someone asking it here :)
