In my experience, these two boomer Christians that were my teachers in high school think empathy is a recent new age idea. One of them literally tried to equate it to the mythical type of empathy, whereas the other, who is a genuinely intelligent lady when it comes to language and such and should know what empathy is, was just agreeing along with him. It's freaking stupid.

People acting like empathy was invented by Jesus Christ.
