We Are to Love our Neighbor.

Many of us say that we love our neighbor. As we get older, we better understand how terribly destructive some of our neighbors are. That growing realization makes it increasingly hard to love some of them. Those who encourage suicide bombers, for instance, are very hard to love. It’s still harder to reconcile the need to love them with the proven fact that it’s difficult for those who don’t share their beliefs to survive their depredations.

When Jesus said: “Do good to them that hurt you.”, He knew, far better than we, the damage that those in The Culture of Death desire to do. Still, He gave us the command “Love your enemies.”

What else can we do?
