you cant justify hate.  I dont understand why so many hate because of what political group they belong to.  Who cares what you are?  If your a nice person and kind and gentle... who cares?

In addition to other good answers, I think hate (even in the form of racism) comes from not understanding something, being afraid of it, or actually being interested in it. Two other possiblities, maybe "the racist" just has no respect for the person of that race, and was using them, or maybe she has build up this "racist personality," but is trying to break free of it.?..just some thoughts.

hate springs from greed. human nature always tells us to be the best.. strive for the best... our inability to be the best, creates envy and frustration. it creates grief --thus mankind is prone to hate. if man can do away with this lust for fame, power, fortune then maybe mankind can indeed love thy neighbor.

No, hatred is not a criminal offense.  The deeds you do and things you say as a result may be.

There's a good majority, Mixed with the created hormonal emotions from the processed food we eat, of humans that  define their reality in pain and suffering. They can't ever be happy. And their thoughts and Ideas, which are quite subjective, of what a perfect world should be, is always wanting to be put into effect. Like Hitler. His perfect world consisted of only blonde-haired blue-eyed germans. He was also beaten severly as a child, and i'm guessing a bit repressed. There are a lot of factors that go into it. Fear leads to anger. anger leads to hate. hate to suffering. It's true. Perphaps the key to fear is reverse paranoia. Instead of everyone expecting everyone to do wrong unto them, perhaps if they expected only the best from them. It's my personal experience that thoughts, whatever they may be, good or bad in perception, that they'll come to life and be seen most by the mind of that who thinks most about it. Your brain has a way of blocking out things it sees regularly from your memory. Only things that are of perceived importance, (things being thought of often) stay in memory, or in notice, on sight. Awareness is created by change. Things that are normal occurances always blend in. Therefore if you make a note of thinking most of good positive things, you'll find that you'll become a good positive person in essence. Likewise if you define your reality through narrowminded beliefs and generalizations, and only feel reality though existance in pain, always paranoid around those whom you don't know personally, then yes, you'll become old from the stress, twisted, maladjusted, and another force generating more negative energy for the world to pick up. Good begets good. Evil begets evil. If the world is to have full and thorough peace within it. There's going to have to be a LOT of accepting going on. Personally, I don't believe that'd be very possible due to the very natures of certain personalities. I believe everything must balance. There is no all good or all evil. Good wouldn't be good without evil. People cannot live without killing and consuming another live being or object. Whether it be plant or animal, the world was destined to always have some form of evil or another in it. I believe it's just the balance of society and of the universe. Otherwise, it'd just be our ego's driven by emotions telling us that death and dying and killing is bad or wrong. Our emotions tell us that, but universally, you'll notice the universe completely indifferent to all emotion. Perphaps just a mechanism to keep us alive, just like lust is a mechanism to keep us reproducing. If it wasn't for our minds ability to believe anything and to perceive purpose, i think we'd all go insane for being like puppets in the grand scale scheme of things, being strong along by our emotions and feelings towards certain things, embedded in our genetics and brains to make it all but most difficult to do anything but what the brains automated reaction had in mind. All in all, stepping out of human persona, and perception of derived purpose, in the grand scheme of things, without human aspect of good or evil, one could possibly say everything is perfect as is. But somewhere somehow, perphaps this is just a good form of entertainment to another entity larger than ourselves, or perphaps our perceptions. The beat goes on da-da-doom-da-doom-da-da. It's going to continue whether we like it or not, so we may as well know our roles and shut our mouths. That's my 2 cents.

I do not promise not to use the word hate where it is justified.  More often, it is the situation, rather than a person or group that I "hate" anyway.  I don't think the leg that fell off my table cares if I hate it or not.  And I am a pretty loving person when it comes to people. I always have and will continue to use the word "hate" conservatively though.

Hate is a basic natural state. We have to have it.  Hate is a dislike of person, place or thing that is perceived to harm our or our decendants current or future  state of well being.  Hate, believe it or not, is not always a bad thing.   For instance, most people hate bird flu, or cancer, or heart disease.  It kills people,  but our hate for it drives us to fight against it, and one day (hopefully) overcome it.   We percieve it as a threat, and we hate it.   Was it wrong for America to hate Osama Bin Laden or Hitler?  Most would say NO.  Was it wrong to hate slavery? Nope.  It gives us the impetus to confront real evil and fight it.    It gives us the courage to stand against what we perceive as a threat to our well being or our loved ones.    We learned to hate, because we had to in order to survive.

Hate:  There will always be a minority.. to remove hate you would need to remove the ability to be different.  \n\nHunger: The world population is growing... The human race is as much a plague to the Earth, as AIDS is to humans... once infected it doesn't go away... Destroys from the inside out... \n\nWar: With freedom to think comes freedom to plot... The desire to have what someone else has...

No, I don't bash anything or anyone. I have my views, but bashing may make your self-esteem feel higher, but what does that say for you as a person?

some people enjoy hating certain groups of people just for the purpose of showing hatred toward another group of people.
