    Sounds very platonic, masochistic, weak, or (all 3) Christian Virtue…

    Rather, we should treat others as you wish to be treated… And then when their response is sure, “treat others as you have been treated.” Love those who deserve love, and destroy those who deserve wrath. A law of basic human nature.

      a reminder that these “values” from religion have been used to keep slaves in line

      I disagree, I don’t see pacifist values as weak at all , quite the opposite in fact.

      I don’t agree with a lot of religious teachings, but this is one thing I think they (in theory if not in practice) get right.
