I think that you really hit it on the head. Especially when you mentioned being ashamed of parts of yourself leading to hatred of those with thost same qualities. Seems very relivant with this whole Idaho senator thing... have you followed that at all?

[karmatic1110]

No but now I am going to have to look into it!

People aren't rational. Hate does not always have clear and well defined causes. Of course it's stupid, but then you have to remember the many other silly things that we humans do and believe. Just another one of our imperfections.

Yes but I also believe its a cop out. My grandmother always says "Well I am too old to learn or change something negative." That has to be my lest favorite phrase.

I was hated by a family member for having a disability. She waw embarrassed that I couldn't see well and ran into things. My disability causes me to look different and she hated it. I don't get how people can hate someone for something that is part of who they are. It doesn't make them bad: it makes them interesting. I'm not glad I'm disabled, but it's a part of me that people like asking about so why should I be ashamed? We're human and that's what matters, despite what makes us different.

Obviously your family member's insecurity led her to do that. I feel the same way about being transgendered. I don't like it, but if you took it away from me, I would lose a part of who I am.

articulate, smart, thoughtful and compassionate.

Thank you so much for your videos.

I wish Haters would go away, I do not like the things that people do and even hate those things LIke the KKK's hate to black people which does make me uncomfortable since I have a Black friend I Love. But the KKK need love maybee they would be so grouchy if they had some too:)

An Interesting video, I hope more people take it to heart. I am part of a Minority group called the Seventh-day Adventist, which that is a minority group of Christians who have beliefs that differ than Main Stream Christians."I hear people state we aren't really christians we are Evil Satanic Cults" Well I hope you get to meet some of us someday, If you are in Ohio you should visit WSDA with Bob McGhee It is very interesting place with Free Dougnuts in the Classes.

very good point but I think some people are so self-involved today that it becomes easier to ostracize rather than understand, narcassisim is a bitch...good insights though...

[ebufford]

I agree. It's real simple...God=LOVE Satan=HATE Sin=WRONG Wrong=SIN The only thing we should be hating is the Devil and his sin IN people. God does not want us hating nobody! We should hate the wrong in everybody that can easily be changed young and old, if they are taught and willing to change.

One of my favorite videos, that everyone should watch, and learn from. Reminds me of the Depeche Mode song "People are People." Compassion and understanding can go a long way. :D Peace.

I just feel that you can't judge, and thus hate a person unless you know their ENTIRE history, their circumstances, their minds.

As the saying goes: You can't hate a person whose story you know.
