Frank Discussion on Hate

[Eilonnwy]

I think it depends on what type of hate you're talking about. If somebody killed my mother, especially if it was first degree murder, then yeah, I'd likely hate this person. However, there's another type of hate, people hating blacks for their skin, gays for their orientation, etc...

The latter, I think, extends from human's social nature which has us form in groups/tribes and as a result we begin to hate people different from us because they are not part of our group. I don't think hate/prejudice is as simple as that, but that's where I think it originates from.
