It’s interesting how certain people react with kindness and forgiveness to those who have done great wrongs to them. Salman Rushdie just put out a book where he tries to understand his attacker’s motives with empathy. I live in the town where Eva Kor settled. She was in Auschwitz as a child, experimented on by Mengele, and made a big point of publicly forgiving Mengele, Hitler and the Nazis for what they did. In some ways, it’s the best revenge you can have.

Religious figures must forgive people that have wronged them. Otherwise, they can’t defend the charade of religion.
Some do actually believe what they’re preaching, believe it or not.
Sure, but Rushdie is an atheist and Kor did not preach religion at all. Just forgiveness.
