I find myself wanting to say something that softens the blow, because I know how much your faith means to you and some part of me doesn't want you to think I'm disparaging what you practice today by saying these things about people you consider cultural, spiritual, and literal ancestors and the political and cultural things they did back then.

But I also think that backtracking would be hypocritical and you're a really good friend, you deserve better from me.

I think it says a lot for your faith and for you that you can and do choose to consider this, even though it is no doubt unpleasant. I hope when I'm confronted with something as difficult for me, I will keep my mind and ears open and also be as thoughtful as you.
