I wonder if one can 'try' to love another person? It seems one has to wrestle with one's own responses and emotions in order to conjure up somehow a good feeling about the 'sinner'. I find this impossible I'm afraid. Love to me is something which grows unaided in the heart and can't be encouraged or pushed into being. Religion (in a broad sense) appears to disregard to a certain extent the natural, human reactions and responses to events, acts and situations. In fact, many ask one to suppress, for example, sexual feelings (which IMO are perfectly normal and not at all sinful) or revulsion, hatred, disapproval etc. of evil people. I'm reluctant to let go of my natural promptings. To 'turn the other cheek' is completely daft. Jesus may have asked us to do this, but one's logic argues against it. I value my logic.
