Well, I’m not going to argue the point, fessie. (By the way, I’m not a Mr. 😉 )

I don’t know the expression of your faith, but why d’you suppose Jesus told humankind to **‘Love your neighbor as yourself’?**

Biblically, it’s a given that all people love themselves.

Just a point to ponder.

Have a fabulous day! - Jesse.
