God allows me to hate evil

Psalm 97:10 Let those who love the LORD hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Proverbs 1:22 "How long will you simple ones [ 1:22 The Hebrew word rendered [ simple ] in Proverbs generally denotes one without moral direction and inclined to evil. ] love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?

Proverbs 8:13 To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech.

Amos 5:15 Hate evil, love good; maintain justice in the courts. Perhaps the LORD God Almighty will have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.

Zechariah 8:17 do not plot evil against your neighbor, and do not love to swear falsely. I hate all this," declares the LORD .

Luke 6:22 Blessed are you when men hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil, because of the Son of Man.

John 3:20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.

John 7:7 The world cannot hate you...

Romans 12:9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.

clearly - a Christian can hate evil as long as they do not conspire against those who perpetrate it.

Id caution your inclusiveness of other faiths

Revelation 3:15 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other!

Revelation 3:16 So, because you are lukewarm–neither hot nor cold–I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Rev 3:16 is probably my biggest fear. God forbid i should ever be found like that.

God bless!

Buddhism and Hinduism predate Christianity, so their founders and scriptures do not speak explicitly of Jesus Christ.

Hindus, however, consider all men to be partial incarnations of divinity, and some, such as Rama and Krishna, to be all divine. I have met Hindus, and many considered Jesus to be a 100% divine incarnation of God. I have seen the picture of Christ on their alters.

Buddhists likewise consider all beings sacred, and sometimes equate Nirvana to Christ consciousness. They try to incorporate all good things into their framework.

I can't speak for Muslims, but I think there is a common ground in man's great religions: they all worship one almighty God.
