It does say to love your neighbor- you are asking questions tonight that are very obviously in the Bible- I think you are trying to see if anyone notices the truth- interesting approach

how far does the 'neighbor' extend? is it secluded to your physical next door neighbor (who is more than likely same religion as you being you are in the same community (yes i know not everyone in the same neighborhood is the same religion))
it certanly does not extend to this forum. i can not once say i 'felt love' from any religious person here.

It did...and yes, I strive to do it! Not perfect of course and sometimes I want to smack my neighbor when, for example, she sets off her car alarm under my window around 3 AM ten nights in a row...but I do my best.
