Why must we hate everyone all of the time? I am getting sick and tired of it. Biblically yes it is wrong, but even more than that, where does it get us? Right now, American soldiers are dieing, in a War, and everyone keeps arguing as to why–it is because we as people hate. Horrible things happen in this world and we blame it on everything else, but we refuse to see what is causing it. Tell me, what is so wrong with treating a person decently? With one kind word you could stop someone from committing suicide, or worse. But here we are, wondering where’s ours, and we look at the lost and say, Screw You! I don’t care what’s wrong with you or how lost you are. I mean come on! Why are people so cruel? And don’t give me the human nature spiel, good people couldn’t exist. It is choice! Choice and choice alone. Horrible people choose to be that way. Cruel people choose to be that way.
All it takes is one person to say “How are you?” with a smile on there face, and if anyone cares to look at their lives maybe they’ll see a small glimmer of hope that the world isn’t just some piece of crap that God threw into motion, and that it’s not all random happenstance.
Just because someone is mean to you, what gives you the right to treat others with the same disrespect?
NO this is not human nature, this is earthly nature! And it’s something we can fix but choose not to. I challenge you to spend one day where you make a conscious effort to be a beacon of light, and not say those cruel things to people, and you tell me then that it doesn’t feel better. That the world just happens to be this way, and that hate rules all. Maybe it’s not easy, but it’s the right thing to do.
