It's been a while, but I've taken a class on Dharmic religions, and another on Middle Eastern Religions (mostly Islam, Judaism, and Coptic Orthodox Church). I've also read a fair amount about most of the other largish world religions.

>ahimsa [1] - avoiding actions which cause undue suffering to any living being and that even includes animals.

Avoiding causing undue suffering is a huge step away from the commandment to actively love all people including your enemies.
