The statement –while very easy to make and accept when presented in its undefined form– has a depth of reality far beyond what the average person wants to know even though such knowledge is critical to salvation. 1. "Whoever is without love does not know God‚ for

Give at least three examples I saw values and beliefs from one extreme to the other. Example 1 – It was automatically assumed‚ by juror 10‚ that because the defendant lived in the ‘slums’ he was violent and guilty.
