I Said: Since when did the right to hate become something “good, Christian people” feel they should fight for?
Min said: Since Theodosius in the 380's AD.
Good answer. But I've a real problem with the notion of hate being a right. That legitimizes it. Hate may very well be a very human emotion, but it's not one
of our better ones. Leaves a bad taste in my mouth, as it were. My parents, among their other sterling qualities <sarcasm>, hated Blacks, Latins, Irish, Italians,
Jews, Gays. They were most democratic where hate was concerned. Other than that they were strict straight ticket republicans. So yeah, I've got a real problem with
the very notion of hate.
