Pema Chodron (Buddhist):
[i]Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognise our shared humanity
[/i]
Why bring "belief" into it? Why divide the world into "believers" and "unbelievers"?
To do so is to take one step away from compassion and genuine empathy.

Uh-huh. Right. It's so obviously practiced. No pretense or hypocrisy there. All of that is forgiven.
@AkioTsukino You can't even do being a Christian right 😂
