The Christian Tradition and the Relationship to Our Enemies

At the heart of the Christian tradition is a particular way of relating to those who are our enemies. You can see that whether in politics, you can see that in at homes is well, enemies and enemy,. A friend is a friend, you divide the world into friends and enemies. That's how life is run. Right. Now, Christian faith has an alternative politics if you want to this type of kind of Hobbesian if you want politics. And that is that you may certainly want to protect yourself from your enemies. But what you also want to do is you want to befriend your enemies. It seems to me that it ought to lie at the very heart of our daily practices.
