Is the difference between Revenge and Vengence just righteousness and is that ever enough?
Umm… revenge and vengeance are the same thing. If you mean Revenge and Justice, the difference is revenge is pay back while Justice seeks a compromise that ultimately ends the struggle. Judges in a courtroom seek justice, but the prosecutors seek revenge. The judge is trying to find a solution that ends the argument without the defendant or prosecutor or others making another trial, be it inside or outside the courtroom. (Just because the law says so does not mean it is.) A true law or decision that really ends all struggle is true justice. A law that must be enforced by others is a law of vengeance.
