It is self evident that we should love one another and that hatred only breeds hatred.
I am not speaking anything extraordinary but something we all should be able to agree with.
If we loved each other as we love ourselves then many of the evils of this world would be vanquished.
Quote:Mockery and scorn are things that evil people do who cannot love. They cannot love so they ridicule. They cannot edify so they tear down. They cannot encourage so they discourage. The natural man is powerless to overcome his own nature.Mockery and scorn are sentiments reserved for incoherent egocentric beliefs that are inherently dangerous when taken too seriously. i.e. Christ-insanity.
Wash your hands (or in this case, mind) of the venomous ideas permeating through Scripture and then some of us might be curious about your thoughts on love and self-denial.
You should be interested in love and self denial regardless of my personal beliefs.
You should not need a reason to love your neighbor as yourself.
Why wait? Why not start now and be the instrument of change that you seem to be implying is so necessary.
You no doubt think yourself to be standing on the moral high ground when compared to me, so show me what is better than loving one's neighbor as one's self?
Show me how mockery and scorn will lead to world peace.
Show me how ridicule will vanquish hate and rid the world of evil and bitterness.
