That nasty Old Testament Hate Your Enemies thing
Ever since Marcion was declared a heretic, a lot of smart people have done a lot of work trying to reconcile the violence of the Old Testament with the love of the New Testament. Peter Rollins now offers his take.

It helps us acknowledge and defuse our own anger. Click, read and ponder, dear friends.
