Hatred comes from fear....
if you hate someone, it's cuz you fear something about them.....usually due to ignorance (ie not understanding the other person's side of the story)

Hating and losing do not always go hand in hand. It depends on what the hate is to cause the fear and what the fear is that may not always cause the hate. It is a combination of deep emotion that may or may not cause the two to beome integrated with each other. Your examples are bery good examples of the two having possibility when two hate and fear can be incongruous of each other. Yes fear of many things can cause an immediate hate of the fear. I fear heights and I hate the fact I fear such an emotion that has no apparent "rationale", but yet others seem OK to embrace heights without fear. We all understand the rationale of why we ALL should fear it, but yet all of us do not. I fear for the good of mankind's welfare and our delicate ecosystem. Does this mean I hate that fear? No, because I embrace the fear as it allows me to keep myself in checks and balances on how I impact my "corner" of the world I occupy You hate losing but it did not mean you hate losers per se. Losing could be a competition emotion of you must win. This is an emotion. Losers are people and it may result in the reason why you feel you hate losing but it is not always the "creator" of why you have such a deep rooted emotion to win. For all I know, you just simply fear of loss in the form of games, fear of loss of people close around you, fear of loss in jobs, which then loss is an emotion, which does not always equate to the people who are losers of those who lack the desire to better themselves. I hate genocide, but it by no means I fear those who commit the crime. It simply just means I don't like the act and the people who have no regard to human life. For some, the reason they hate genocide is because they have seen it in action and the people who wield the orders directly in its face. These people could reasonably fear the monsters who haphazardly take human life for the purpose of "cleansing" one racial group. This thought provokes a myriad of topics where the two coalesce harmoniously into one thought and feeling but at the same time the two could be just nodding ideas separate from the other

Yes. Fear leads to the negative side of the feeling scale.. Didn't anyone hear Yoda? lol

Not at all the same thing. It's quite possible to fear someone and still love them in spite of the fear. On the other hand, it's also quite possible to have no fear at all of someone and still hate them bitterly. Anyone who thinks otherwise is sadly deluded about human nature.

No.
Fear comes from knowledge. Fear is knowing the others capability may excede your own.
Hate usually comes from a lack of knowledge about the other person. Can also be because of something they have done to you.
Hate is an emotion, fear is also an emotion but is based more on knowledge (or lack thereof -i.e. afraid of the dark because you don't know whats out there).

Fear is not the same as hate. Fear is the first thing that will burn in hell. Revelation 21. Hate is to severely dislike something. Rid yourself of it.

No. To Hate is to want to hurt, or to want to be away from. To fear is to anticipate being hurt by something. The two are related, and somewhat similar, but by no means identical.

According to M. Scott Peck, Author of the ROAD LESS TRAVELED series, there are only two ways a person can act: out of love or out of fear.
All other emotions are secondary emotions. That means they all stem from one of the two.
