Empathy Is Now a Sin? Really?

It's toxic. It's sinful. It's compassion corrupted. It's ruining the world and is definitely at the root of all the bad things. What is this fresh evil? Empathy, of course! Or so says a growing faction of Christians with very loud voices.

Plus: a sickness story swap and the punishing timeline nobody asked for.
