Is there a chance of reverting the present hate culture that is taking over the US?

Question

Hate for illegal immigrants, for muslims, for homossexuals, for people of a different race... you name it.

Answer 1

America is paranoid since 9/11, so it,s becoming fortress usa. I would not call it hate but fear. Pity for them, but under the present situation understandable.

Answer 2

Uh.... we hate illegal immigrants because they lower the quality of life for everyone! if they went back home after picking tomatoes then it wouldnt be an issue. Fanatical Muslims hate everyone that isnt a muslim, they will kill innocents, so of course I'm outraged at them. start to ask people why they are pissed instead of whining that people are haters, maybe the hated gave them a reason to be hated.

i dont hate homosexuals, the spend Tons of money which boost the economy, they dont breed, so if it is genetic it will simply breed itself out. they make sure that their neiborhoods look nice, or at least I've never seen a homo ghetto.

Answer 3

There is a problem with your question Immigrants, muslims,different races, these are not SINS, Homosexuality IS, im not racest, or against any of the things you mentioned, except Homosexuality, which is a SIN, The word of God says it is, And I believe the word of God, and anyone who denies what the Bible has to say about it, is decieving theirself, and are Blind, or have been given a reprebate mind.

We should begin by trying to talk to each other rather than talking past each other. Before we rudely dismiss out of hand the obviously stupid arguments being put forth by the other fellow, we should make sure that what we think we are hearing as his arguments really are his arguments. A good way to do this is to keep reminding ourselves that we should approach our discussions, debates, and arguments with the other side by stating to our interlocutors at the outset something like this:

I WILL NEVER PRESUME TO DISAGREE WITH YOUR POSITION UNTIL I HAVE FIRST RESTATED YOUR POSITION TO YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION.

Example: My philosphical or political opponent, Harry, states his case to me. I respond by saying, "Harry, I think I hear you saying such-and-such. Is that what you intend to be saying and for me to be hearing? Do I understand you correctly?" Harry replies, "No, it's fairly close but not exactly what I meant. What I hoped you would hear in the words I used was so-and-so. Did you not hear any of that in what I said?" "Yes," I reply, "I understand now what you meant. As it happens, I agree with your position in part and I disagree with it in part. Let me explain. blah blah bha." And so on. At some point Harry and I wil come to realize that we agree on a great many things. We also realize that until now we had no idea that we agreed on anything. The discovery that we actually do is something we find refreshing, and we pause to enjoy the moment.

The second thing we should do is try to evaluate the other fellow's arguments on the basis of their instrinsic worth or merit, and not on the basis of what we think his underlying motives or agenda are or on the basis of his position in society. Ideas have intrinsic worth or merit that exists independently of their proponents and independently of their proponents' motives or agendas. On any given day, an idea submitted by the janitor can be orders of magnitude more workable and worthwhile than an idea submitted by the chairman of the board. It isn't always easy to separate our evaluation of the worth of an idea from our perceptions of the motives and agendas of the idea's proponents; but we definitely need to make the effort because the outcome we seek can never be achieved if we do not.

I could go on, but I'm sure you get the idea. Progress will be brought about, if at all, only by millions of small steps taken by hundreds of thousands of people on a sustained, consistent, and persistent basis. If we can get past our mutual distrust of each others' motives and agendas to a point where we can talk with each other and actually hear each other, relearning how to engage in civil dialogue as we go along, we'll have made a good start.
