  • I don't know that I'd call it hate but rather, I'm proud to know what I stand for and what I stand against. Perhaps that is just semantics but that's how I see it.

    Hatred is occasionally the appropriate response to certain things / actions---hate the sin, love the sinner, for example.

    Many of you might insist that you don’t ever feel hatred, or that hatred is a negative or “bad” emotion we shouldn’t allow ourselves to feel. I believe that hatred simply is, however disruptive it might be within society and our relationships; it’s written into our genes. Certain experiences will automatically trigger feelings of hatred, whether or not we want to feel that way. These inbuilt physiological responses are called “affects” and it helps to think of them as akin reflexes. You can’t stop a particular affect from being triggered any more than you can stop your knee from jerking when the doctor strikes your patellar ligament with a rubber mallet.
