Talk:Mercy

Mercy and forgiving
Mercy is strictly connected to forgiveness. Why isn't that mentioned? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.208.83.246 (talk) 12:50, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Grace vs. mercy
It would in my opinion be prudent to discuss these two concepts in the same context since to me they seem to overlap in a rather unclear manner. __meco 06:49, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

El Vandelismo
I believe this page needs to be reverted to its original purpose.

Removed element about euthenasia called mercy-killing
The text mentioned euthenasia being called mercy-killing by its proponents; quite apart from this being a bit extraneous to the subject (particularly set up as being the 'reverse' of clemency) I doubt this is the case. It's more of an old-fashioned term than one side or the other's political code language. It doesn't seem particularly pertient to the article so I'll cut it. 142.167.184.6 03:54, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Mercy Rule in high school sports
Why no mention? And why is this article a carbon copy of the one at answers.com? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.58.149.18 (talk) 16:10, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Sections?
Does it not make sense to separate the legal aspect from the religious one? The way I suggest would be a general intro, then a legal section, then a religious and ethical section. And the quote from Shylock is about 40% of the article! That should be trimmed or go, for it is the tail wagging this article. Suggestions? History2007 (talk) 14:35, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Concrete examples needed in intro
Hi there,

The intro is really abstract. It would be quite helpful to include a concrete example in the intro, such as that of the Good Samaritan (Luke's gospel ).

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.6.243.75 (talk) 06:11, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

No mercy!
Excuse me but I find the inclusion of Islam a joke under mercy. You can't just include ANY religion and call it merciful. In fact I would say that Islam is the exact opposite of merciful. Please remove the reference. Of course if you like most of the leaders in this country you will bend to their will because you are AFRAID of them cutting off your head. Am I right? Not exactly merciful are they. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.100.169.57 (talk) 15:17, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

What about the name, "Mercy"?
This article doesn't address the use of Mercy as a name. Can I assume that Mercy is one of the Puritan virtue names? What nickname is used for the name of Mercy? Or is Mercy already a nickname? If so, for what name?
