      Saints are known and martyred for their selflessness and self‐sacrifice. The church is as man made as the Saints, hence all the bad history I’m sure both share to some degree; your proof only proves my point further.

      Peacemaking is peacemaking; love is love; we shouldn’t dismiss all the good someone does just because what their shirt connotates. 2+2 is still 4 whether its Hitler or Jesus saying it. Returning good for evil done is more logical whether it’s Hitler or Jesus going about it.
