True. Although the corollary for that is that sometimes the longer we know someone the more we are likely to DIS-like them. LOL

I was actually thinking in terms of loving all of humanity. I can love them all and feel sadness for those who have lost their way. However those who choose to harm others, i.e. terrorists and other murders I very much DIS-like and will until they stop trying to kill us all.

Agreed.

And, a certain quality of love requires a fitting amount of knowledge about the individual--if one is going to love in more than abstract terms.

. . . Which . . . is the call . . . The Good Samaratin vs the ones passing by on the other side of the road.
