Apathy

In Christianity you will certainly find those who are willing to turn the other cheek, and even those who are willing to turn others' cheeks, but you will at least not find those who doubt they have cheeks to turn.

Likewise, in Christian teaching you will find empathy, and even enmity, but you will not find apathy.

And why? Because it can never be said that Christianity doesn't teach that there are things worth fighting for, even if it teaches that the best way to fight for them is not to fight at all.
