[16] Why respect personality?
Western rel. thought it is demanded by 3 interrel. relig. doctrines. 1. God created all men in is image. 2. God is the Father of all men. 3. All men are therefore brothers.
In the injunction to love our enemies respect for personality finds its ultimate expression. Love your enemies that you may be children of your father which is in heaven: for he maketh the sun rise on the evil and on the good and sendeth rain on the just and unjust.
