If they hate you here,they'll hate you there...Maybe hating is allowed in heaven.

Now don't tell me God ain't got a sense of humour....

There is no sorrow for you or them.

That is probably very true. If that is in fact the case, they will probably go through a period of intense guilt and feel the pain they caused you and others. I know I tend to feel quite a bit of guilt at the things I did when I was younger and I am still young. It's something that hurts me before I go to bed and right when I wake up in the morning.

Overall, if they get there they will apologize.

What if they shunned the person because the person they shunned was a bad person? You don't believe that a person should just remain friends with someone that hurts others, does bad things, and is just not a good person to be around, do you? Why should they feel guilty if that is the case?

That's a good question. I view shun asas a group of people coming together to push away one individual. It can happen that one individual shun's another but in those cases I see it as one individual making others feel guilty, ashamed, or wrong usually to hurt them and not protect themselves from them. That's just how I see shun.

So, if someone is harmful to you or others I wouldn't consider it shunning if they just got away from that person or severed ties with that person. I would agree that is the best thing to do. Of course, the policy I try to keep is I'm always here for you if, if, if you change but I can understand if people are so hurt they never accept them into their life again.. So, there is never an intent to harm anyone but just keep yourself safe.

Yes, I was talking more about not being around toxic people.
