Hate

Quote:
1 a : intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury. b : extreme dislike or antipathy :
 What I hate the most is hatred. (;)) It grows like a weed, and seems to attach its' burred and barbed seeds to everyone who brushes against it. The plant is fed by the neurotic belief that it will banish fear, resolve anger, or command justice for past injuries. Instead, more plants are propagated. The roots are deeply intertwined with our cultural values and programming, so pulling them out requires great care and patience. Often these roots can seem integral to our known selves, and removing them is perceived as a direct threat to our continued existence. If we do not hate, (goes our internal dialogue) others will take advantage, do us wrong, commit heinous crimes against humanity, continue in their sinful practices. So we go on watering the plant.

I hate all prejudiced people, and the Dutch.
"So we go on watering the plant."
I was visiting my folks in the old folks home and witnessed overwatering in action. The poor plant's container was not only full but had overflowed onto and severely staining the brand new carpet in the brand new addition.
I HATE IT when that happens! 
p.s. the plant was dying

You're a riot, Lunar. Movie quotes aside, what do you think about hatred?

I didn't say it was my dream, just that it was someone's dream.
I think hate is spun into whatever it is that people need to hear today to make the hate somehow palatable.
I think hate is feeding the masses hormone tainted meat from tortured animals and having them gobble it up (OK I have been known to enjoy steak) in the form of Quarter Pounders with Cheese supersized with tallow flavored fries and washed down with a Biggie Coca Cola.
I could go on...

Hate is largely from our having been taught or having learned to having an aversion or dislike of certain things. How much we choose to act on that hate or to wallow in it or to even overcome it may not be an easy or even possible choice. Depending on our level of have and obsession with the hated item.
I prefer to think of what other's may perceive as hostile hateful action as "tough love" or an "opportunity to learn". Plus, it is always better IMO to confront one's hate in the form of expression. Otherwise, how can one learn about overcoming what hasn't been expressed? By this I don't mean that one truly gets to acting out on the hate in a physical permanent injury or death type scenario. Remember the pillow fights that the Bhagwan had? Well, something like that but not with the deceit, lies, sexual abuse, bioterrorist activities, and people almost dying from salmonella poisoning.
Make sense?

I agree. Maybe all hate is a form of self loathing.

I agree in part...supressing hateful impulses will only result in their being expressed in some other way, so that route doesn't work. However, expression without self-analysis and application of reason seems to encourage the growth of these weeds.

We hate what we see in others that we hate about ourselves. Sure why not?
As for meat, I am hoping to "break the cycle" shortly. That is to say, eat some fish from the river and start raising chickens for eggs.
I was talking with a friend about what to feed chickens and he said the best "cockers" in Mexico feed them rice and beans. I liked that. You are what you eat or what your chickens eat so why not some good rice and beans and lettuce and herbs and vitamins and whatever else you want to be. Be all that you can be, in the Chicken Army!
But seriously, this is serious stuff. I watched the meat chickens eat ten times more than the "regular chickens" but the meat chickens have become our "regular chickens". If a meat chicken doesn't get fed it just pecks it's neighbors eyes out on the way to the next meal...
I HATE IT when that happens....

Eating fish from the river isn't always recommended....
