It ' d be nice if this caught on , and we came up with a word for organizations dedicated to doing investigative work to determine the truth about situations . <| sep |> Loving your enemies and blessing those who curse you . Assuming that by default we all love each other , there ' s a recent quote from an exCIA officer that I think reflects this very well If you ' re brave enough to listen to your enemy ' s story , you can see that more often than not , you might have made some of the same choices if you ' d lived their life instead of yoursalso relevant , from the same guy If I ' ve learned one lesson from my time with the CIA , it is this Everybody believes they are the good guy , If someone curses me they have a reason to do so , maybe that reason is plain ignorance or maybe I did something wrong but the one thing I know for sure is that hating them won ' t help , so why not just love them like any other human being ? If the state of things do not change and my enemy remains hateful , I think he will indeed be in hell , his own personal hell . That doesn ' t mean I wouldn ' t defend myself from physical harm , or even kill in selfdefenseTo some extent it ' s also a thing I see people do when standing up for free speech I don ' t like what he has to say but I ' ll fight for his right to say it . However I ' m sure you ' re right and there is lots of other things that I would find nonsensical , I guess I ' d just assume they ' re from a context I can ' t grasp andor doesn ' t apply for today ' s society . If you have more of these I ' ll give them a shot
