The secret enemies of peace, your least decision to choose attack instead of love, unrecognized and swift to challenge you to combat and to violence far more inclusive than you think, are there by your election.
Do not deny their presence nor their terrible results. All that can be denied is their reality, but not their outcome.
All that is ever cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though unrecognized, is faith in specialness.
This takes many forms, but always clashes with the reality of God's creation and with the grandeur that He gave His Son.
What else could justify attack? For who could hate someone whose Self is his, and Whom he knows?
Only the special could have enemies, for they are different and not the same.
And difference of any kind imposes orders of reality, and a need to judge that cannot be escaped.
