I can't disagree with anything you said.
God can use these moments to help people help others. This poor person needs to talk to others who are about to make this disastrous decision, might make them feel better.
Either way, I agree. I think we even get off here on hating people, which is not what Jesus wanted at all. It's something I struggle with as well. Hate doesn't come from the most high, it comes from that asshole who tricks everyone.
Compassion trumps judgement in my eyes. Thanks for being a good-hearted person. Need more of you in this world.
I'm glad I balance my social media viewing with a range of topics, good for the mind to take breaks, as well as pulling insight from places you never expected on topics that have nothing to do with politics.
I watch Cinema Therapy from time to time on YouTube, where this film maker sits down with his friend and therapist to watch movies, and talk about a myriad of things related to the film, the psychology behind it from a film and interpersonal perspective, etc.
On the episode they did talking about Dreamwork's "The Prince of Egypt", the therapist talks about his idea that hate comes from love, usually from 3 major avenues:
Hating people we used to love, because we feel betrayed over something they did or do.
Hating people who are a threat or are a perceived threat to someone or something we care deeply for.
Hate is taught by those we love, and we hate the 'other' because we love those who care or are perceived to care for us.
I'm paraphrasing, but this is what I've come away with.
So how do we combat all this hatred that is cemented in the roots of feelings of love?
Honestly? With more love. Hating them back or degrading them when they've hit their lows is only going to backfire, either reinforcing their ideals, or resulting in death, theirs or someone else's.
Very interesting. Thx for this. Never really gave hatred that much thought, but seems like this is all true.
What I do know is that Love, as gay and fake as it sounds, is really the most powerful force in this world. Can do so much good when applied. God bless.
Love and compassion are the strongest forces we have in this world. It is so powerful that it even can be found in animals across the species. It's nurture.
There is obviously a difference between when people like us say "love and compassion" verse when those terms are thrown around by someone else, where it's supposedly not compassionate unless you agree or affirm, or coddle another human being. That's not love. Love is nurture, you provide the means and teach someone how to be able to love and care for themselves, to be independent, so that they in turn love and teach someone else,.. it's an energy that recycles, again and again and again.
