Jesus said: "'The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify against it that its works are evil.'" John 7:7 (NRSV)
But I say that the evils of the world are caused by fear.
So the remedy is not to attack evildoers but to love them.
Because "perfect love casts out fear." 1 John 4:18 (NRSV)
And when their fear is gone their evil will be gone also.
