Wink "Doing Good to be Spiteful"

This guy on another forum said to me, 'Jesus also told us, ''If you do good to the one who hurts you,'' Guess what ? ''it will be for him as if you placed burning coals on his head.'' '

So I responded, "I've got an idea for you, then. Send us all your money, then fuck your siblings and children, then jump off the nearest bridge. That'll be like placing hot coals on my head."

Thought/comments on this little...'discussion'?

Jesus' advice seems quite useful for people who have never met a ruthless adversary.

I've never really understood how we know that these wonderfully stupid JC sayings weren't just him being sarcastic.

It sure sounds like sarcasm to me.
