I like some of the New Age stuff, it's an interesting take on the nature of consciousness. Christian mysticism is a real thing and is at the early foundation of the church. Contemplation, prayer, insight, silence and fasting are all important in the process of awakening.
Some people market evil things with New Agey flavors, but a lot of them are decent people. Krishnamurti, Alan Watts, Ram Dass, Father Thomas Merton. Buddhism, at its core, is the same spirit as the Christian faith. Unconditional love and dealing with, reducing suffering in the world. I'm a Christian, but I appreciate these teachings. Going to church is one thing, but having a continual, ever unfolding interaction with Christ, the Holy Spirit, Consciousness, Truth, is what is important. Moreso than going to church one day a week and being and being an asshole for the other 6 days once the oxytocin high subsides.
Justice must be served to those who are evil. Unconditional love is different. I try to think about what Christ would do. Would Christ, having seen all that the cabal has done, close his heart off to them, or if they asked for redemption, would he accept them?
It's a tough call, but I'd hope that there is something redeemable or transcendent in even the most horrid of offenders. The crimes must be payed for, but hating the hated seems too easy.
Luke Skywalker didn't strike down the Emperor.
It's a tough call. I do believe there is evil people. This is a matter of demonic possession. But I'd hope that there is light somewhere in there.
In terms of Uncoditional love, it is like the sun, which shines on everyone. So Unconditional love is beyond judgement, it just is
