From the Bible, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you” (Matthew 5:44). I am sure similar quotes exist in all of the religious texts. From Erica Kirk, the wife of the slain Charlie Kirk, “The answer to hate is not hate,” and she forgave her husband’s killer.
From President Trump, “I hate my opponents, and I don’t want the best for them.” Which is the most Christian and the person looking for a positive world? The reader can determine that, easily.
