Emperor Nero and his reasons in persecuting christians?
The reason for Nero's persecution of Christians may be attributed to the Great Fire of Rome in 64 AD. The city was reduced to rubble and although many thought that Nero may have been responsible for the blaze, a few sources say that Christians may have confessed to the crime, although by free will or by torture is unknown. Because of this, Nero and the community placed the blame on the Christians, and thus they suffered greatly, by being crucified, thrown to dogs, and burned.
Should perpetrators of domestic violence be prosecuted without the victim's consent?
Yes. Crimes are prosecuted by the state, not the victims. Whether or not the victim wants the crime prosecuted is irrelevant. If the crime has been committed, there is enough evidence to prosecute, and it is in the public's interest to curb this type of crime, the crime should be prosecuted. Additionally, in the area of domestic violence battery particularly, there is an emotional involvement between the victim and the defendant. In this area, perhaps more than any other area, the defendant "gets to" the victim and discourages cooperation at an alarming rate. Often, when the victim refuses to cooperate with authorities, and the case is not prosecuted, the victim is attacked again later by the same defendant.
