As the Christmas season winds down, I still grasp for stories of love, charity, and service. As individuals and families strive to emulate Christ and his ministry during this month, we see an outpouring of goodwill. On the other side of the world, in a tiny, poverty-stricken country, an airstrike by a century-old vehement political and ideological enemy ends the lives of over 300 and injures thousands more. I ask myself: Why so much hatred in the world? And where does it originate? How can one people have so much animosity towards the other? I cannot comprehend.
