“It’s especially important to remember that people love hating their enemies — they love that more than anything. So the worst thing you could do to them, as far as they’re concerned, is to diminish their hatreds. To those of us who don’t happen to share those hatreds, their behavior might look like wearying, pointless repetition. But from the inside, those hatreds are the primary instrument of myth confirmation. They give security, and people want security. I can’t blame them for that, but I sure wish they chose different means to that end. I have no influence in the matter, though.”
And for my reflection, because I fail at these so often:
“Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.” Romans 12:21 NLT
“Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.” Romans 12:18 NLT
