James 1:27:
Quote
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.

That is  religion representing our best impulses.  Smiley
Acts of kindness and love may be less mentioned these days, but they are as more a part of religions than hate. Christianity and Islam have long traditions of helping the less fortunate. Christians who can do so are supposed to give 10% of their money via the system called "Tithing".  In Islam "Zakat" is one of the 5 pillars of Islam that all Muslims must uphold. Like Tithing, Zakat is a system to redistribute wealth via religious giving.
