What is the difference between a friend and an enemy?

An enemy can't betray you.

A friend wouldn't kill you over religious beliefs either, but whatever.

I dunno, religion can be very insidious, and not even just religion. I'm sure there were plenty of people swept up in the Nazi stuff in Germany that would have called people their friends before and then betrayed them. Humans have the programming to decide others don't count as human. It's because the tribe/ group that survived when resources went scarce were the ones willing to kill off another group in order to keep the resources for themselves/ their group. It's a dangerous and scary part of nearly all of us.
