i always say that you should do everything you can, while trusting god to take care of the things you cant.  we see god clearly respecting zeal for his values as we see when phineas killed the sinners and was rewarded the priesthood. how god always told them what to do, but in the end they had to choose to do as god said as well.  its important we dont act out of hatred or pride and such, but even when punishing someone acting in the love of the one who is preferably corrected due to the disciplining, or those being protected through his punishment. when someone slaps you on the cheek, insults you, then you just serve your pride when retalliating, but we are meant to fight for greater things. and yeah, burger culture has spawned some truely abbominable churches.
