IIRC, Jesus admonished us to love our personal enemies (inimicos) not our national enemies (hostes). After all, if you turn the other cheek to your hostes, he won’t slap you, he will stick a knife into you.

The truth will always be at odds with the lies of the world.

It’s good to see replies from a Christian perspective – so much of the world turns its back on the source of all wisdom.

In this day, if you have no enemies, you’ll be swallowed up by the mob as it marches off into perdition.
