As for the love of neighbor…Today, it cannot include for Muslims only Muslim neighbors, for Christians only Christian neighbors, or for Jews only Jewish neighbors. It must include followers of other religious communities, even nonreligious communities, and especially the nonhuman world. In fact, if Muslims and Christians, not to speak of other groups, do not extend their love of neighbor to the natural world, the consequences of the environmental crisis caused in fact by the lack of love of neighbor, in its larger reality, will make other efforts more or less irrelevant.
