We're all of us by definition candidates for sainthood. That's one definition of a human being.

Loving your enemy means you want them to stop them being your enemy. Wanting that to happen isn't that far out of reach. Maybe if you hated them, and wanted to hold on the the hate, you wouldn't want them to change, because that might get in the way of doing that.

NB I'm writing this on the assumption that GUEST 19 Oct 03 - 02:25 PM is the same as GUEST 19 Oct 03 - 02:17 PM and GUEST 19 Oct 03 - 01:23 PM. However, as I pointed out in my last post, there's no reason some other GUEST might not be doing the posting, so I won't be responding to any further GUEST posts here without some kind of pseudonym (however temporary) attached to the GUEST, for the reasons I gave.
