Ephesians 4:32
Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Christians are commanded to be kind, not nice; to sympathize with sinners like Christ, not empathize with the devil like them.
Empathy is evil.
It is an emotional hostage situation complete with demands and threats of violence.
Sympathy commands one's strength to help the weak.
Empathy demands one's strength be surrendered in order to relate to the weak.
Empathy is emotional egalitarianism. It would rather everyone drown in despair than anyone stand on solid ground. It prefers the equity of a plane crash with no survivors to the salvation of a few who packed their parachutes.
Empathy is sinpathy. It is corrupted sympathy. It's a sugar substitute that seems sweet but gives you dementia. It is the tyranny of the treacle — sickly sweet, candy coated suicide.
