God says I am to hate the sin but love the sinner (their soul), but when all I read is people abusing, killing, torturing animals, children and the elderly, I will pray for them, but I sure can not love anything about them and I do not believe they actually have a soul, I truly believe they sold their soul to satan as a child (or their parent did), so what is left to love, a human body which is a shell, nope I think not. I pray the Lord forgives me for feeling and believing this way, but I am fed up with all the cruelty in OUR country, it is becoming more and more a third world country of unintelligent barbarians every day.
