Protag:

Love your enemies. Christ said that because it works. I understand your feelings, I do.

[Protagoras]

Love your enemies.

Thanks for the advice.

Christ said that because it works.

Thanks for your opinion on why Christ said things.

I understand your feelings, I do.

Really? Since you don't know my feelings, how could you presume to understand them?

And why would you feel compelled to tell me to love my enemies? Was that just out of the blue or did you think I had some enemies here?

Love your enemies

Definitely. I'd be lying if I said this wasn't one of the toughest things in the world to do.

I just noticed one of the keywords tacked on to this thread: "War on Catholics". It seems a little strange to me after seeing a thread yesterday on which several Catholics were mercilessly attacking a non-Catholic just because she said she uses the pill and doesn't want children. These Catholics even went so far as to tell her she's not Christian, an action which is clearly against Christ's specific command.

I consider folks who would say such things enemies of the Word. Still, I understand I must love them.
