Genesis 15:16
But in the fourth generation they shall return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete
God did not allow them to have the land, Yet in 400 years. When this iniquity was complete (in the hebrew, the term complete means to be finished, comleted, brought to its conclusion.) God said ok, you are free to go in, But when you go, Kill everything, the animals, the kids, the babies the people.
I believe the flood was pronounced for the same reason,,
What reason woudl that be, what does it mean, the iniquity has been completed.

To explan a little further
These people were in sin, As all people. They had already earned condemnation. So I do not think personal sin is in question here. In fact, it cannot be, because if it was personal sin, or earning the right to go to hell. That had already been completed. They could not be more worthy of condemnation thanthey or anyone else already were.

"Attack" is such an over used word on this site, generally used on those hated by another person isn't it? "He 'attacked' you, me, them!" It's a form of "attack" in itself. I'd say "slander" is generally used in the same way.
Disagreeing and showing ideologies as bogus isn't attacking.

One can disagree without calling people names, or making fun of them. Or making yourself look like you are so much better than them (Ie, I do not have to answer your question)
People disagree all the time without doing these things.
Yet it amazes me that people still think this is ok. And want to write it off as nothing.

Attacks come in various ways. They do not always have to be violent. I can attack you merely by attacking your character or belittling you.. For most people this does not do anything. But for some, this can tear them down and affexts them as if they were violently attacked.
Either way, A child of God should not attack another child of God for any reason.
