This is a difficult subject, but if people CHOOSE to hate, do they really know GOD? Forgiveness is a choice, not a feeling. Disobeying GOD's Command to love our enemies as ourselves is a serious matter.

7 Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. 8 But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love. ~ 1 John 4:7

[HippyLoggerBiker]

While it looks violent when a leopard brings down an antelope, it is similar to me picking an apple. I have seen the wrath of a mother protecting her young. Do not confuse a violent action with hate.

There are times when it is right — and righteous — to be angry. It is right to be angry about people who exploit children. Let that righteous anger fuel action when, in rare circumstances, it may be necessary.

Yes, you are absolutely correct “This is a difficult subject...”

I wish you well.
