When a fellow human warns another, to prevent them from a path leading to destruction, why is it called hate?

Question

You see it and hear it all the time around you, on most networks, etc.. If someone turns to their fellow human, whom they see about to run headfirst into disaster or destruction, like something that may 'feel good' at the moment but be harmful to you both mentally, spiritually, & physically in the long run, maybe into other people's lives as well, and tries to warn them by telling them the problem and/or where it is wrong, the person trying to help, out of love for their fellow human, is emphatically called a 'hater' or is said to hate those they are trying to help. That is like saying that, if I see you heading out into the path of an oncoming train, that if I love you, I will not say a word to you about it, so that I won't hurt your feelings by telling you, etc. I wouldn't won't someone like that for a friend because he wouldn't even help watch your back or anything. Seems like these Christians are onto something, and everyone seems to be committing atrocity and persecution by blame

Answer 1

First, it's always easier to commit sins than it is to be spiritually disciplined.

Next, those people screaming "hater" are prima-donna crybabies that would complain even if you let them run headlong into disaster! Most Christians feel a sense of responsibility to help guide heathens like atheists and fags, but those bums keep rejecting their help.

I personally could care less if they destroy themselves but that's not what God wants. God wants us to make a FREEWILL decision to follow Him. The heathens are making a freewill decision not to.

Let 'em rot!!!

Answer 2

The problem is that Christians only THINK they see a train. They can't prove their faith to be the be-all and end-all, accept by an infallible book that's been written; re-written; subtracted from; added to; translated into millions of languages, etc.

That's great if they're preaching to be nice or whatnot, but everyone in a civilized society has heard about the "Good Word". We don't need it rammed down out throats if we choose to not fallow the Christian doctrine.

Christians are so into having their way that they turn to murder and massacre if they don't get there way. Take the Witch Trials and the Catholic Saints for instance. And please don't say "Well, they weren't TRUE Christians". Yes, they were. They believed in God and accepted Jesus as their saviour. That's all that's required to be a Christian.

Anyhow, Christians don't respect other people of other religions and condemn them to hell, or worse have them tortured and put to death. That's hateful.

Read Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" It explains it pretty well. People often, it seems, are hell bent on their own destruction, and they have a right to be the masters of their own destiny, the captain of their ship; it is their perogative, because anything else would make them robotic slaves. Part of that "right" is the wanting to feel like they are smart in doing what they are doing, therefore pride will keep them from being able to admit when they are wrong, because then they think people would label them as stupid. Therefore they have to make up some defense to push away the ones who try to tell them they are headed down a wrong path and one of those defenses is to lay guilt on the helping party by calling them hate-mongers or phobics or whatever... hope this helps, don't give up trying, even if only one out of a hundred listens, at least you have helped that one...

Answer 4

it's not hate, it's HEY! like Hey, watch out!
on second thought, it seems a case of overpreaching. there really is nothing in it, or probably there was a case when the people warned were actually hated like you hate arrogant kids but you still warn them in case of fire...then the preachers took it as a universal thing, trying to get meaning on something that has no meaning at all. anyway, it is way over the and beyond what is good and evil, just be nice and good, don't think too much which is nice and which is not.

Take a lesson from Johah, on a boat. He seemed arrogant to the sailors at first, and then he seemed jinxed. If he had just kept his mouth shut, he would have landed safely without the whole whale incident. People don't like bad news, and they'd just a soon toss the messenger, with the message. It's been that way for a long time. It's not likely to change.

Take a lesson from Jesus, everything was cool, the wine, the fish, the bread...then someone asked him for a sign. He mentioned Jonah, and I'll be damned if they didn't toss him, along with his message. Go figure...

Years ago, I had a girlfriend. She asked me what I thought about her new dress. Me and my big mouth...she tossed me...

Answer 6

Okay, I'm going to take this question as sincere.

If you are not a Christian, then you do not believe in the Christians's road to salvation. A Christian who attempts to 'save' another is disrespecting that person's beliefs, and arrogantly claiming that his beliefs are superior to that person's beliefs. Superiority is not exactly hatred, but they can be classified similarly. If I have full confidence in my lifestyle, and you condemn my lifestyle, again you are speaking from a position of superiority and arrogance. This is not hate, but it very often leads to hate.

You need to trust in other people's ability to do the right thing and to find the good within themselves. The Bible may be a useful tool for you, personally, but it is not the only tool available, and some people don't need an exterior tool at all. This is something that everybody needs to find for themselves.

Answer 7

What you might consider a path of destruction, other people might consider a way of life.

You would not appreciate it at all if I told you that I think Religion and Christianity are the path to ignorance and superstition, in fact, you'd probably think I was full of hate. so why does it surprise you when people spurn your unwanted concern for their well being? If you want a receptive audience, wait until someone asks you for spiritual help/advice. Otherwise you're being inappropriate.

Answer 8

Christians, the ones called haters that is, are not in any way trying to help anyone. I don't see them trying to help homeless people or stray animals, or kids that come from bad homes. The people that are identified as haters are the extreme christians that claim homosexuality is a sin. Thus, they are hating, not helping.

Answer 9

It's also like a thug, coming up behind you with a gun, pointing it at your back, and saying give me your wallet or I'll shoot you. They are just trying to prevent you from getting a bullet in the back. Why consider it hate? Why not just give them the wallet? It's obviously the reasonable choice? Ever heard "Tithe or Burn"? Yeah, give me your wallet or burn in h3ll. Thanks for the help bro! I almost got hit by that run away train. Well, you asked, so I told you. There is another way to percieve it.

Answer 10

I comprehend the place you're coming from....while you're coming from a loving point of view. many of the time, this is not from a loving point of view...this is drizzled with the sugary frosting of "love", yet reeks with prejudice. You go the line into bigotry once you tension your faith down somebody's throat telling them they'll burn in hell. you in addition to mght go the line once you butt in to somebody's own company without being invited. What you will be able to grow to be responsive to as heading in the direction of catastrophe, somebody else might see it as an excellent circulate. merely because of the fact your bible says this is incorrect (it does not ...yet that's yet another question), does not furnish you with the splendid to intrude once you're actually not invited. often times you attractive Christians do exactly not understand the place your organization stops. this is lots diverse from "heading into the process an oncoming prepare". that's a given....and that i might anticipate you, or every physique else for that count, to enable me understand, "whats up...a prepare's coming". not an extremely good evaluation to to sexual id, nonetheless. in case you may merely concepts your man or woman company, we could all get alongside in a civil way. regrettably, once you grow to be a Christian you immediately get a unfastened fee ticket into genuinely everyone else's company...and that merely ain't actual.
