Hate's Roots and Remedies

-

 



There are three primary causes of hatred. Resentment, Fear, and disgust. Resentment is probably the most common cause of hate, but disgust is by far the most lethal. You can respect what you fear, even if you hate it, and avoid the dangers of it, and resentment is usually directed at things equal to or more powerful than the resentful person, but disgust can lead you to harm even harmless things and people and dehumanize or devalue them into almost nothing in terms of value and treat them as if it were an imperative and moral good to Eradicate them from the world. 


Disgust hatred is the most lethal because of this.


There are a few ways to combat the three main causes of hatred. For resentment, the best measure to take against it before it leads to hate is forgiveness. Letting go, moving on from the wrong, detaching yourself from the bitterness of the situation, and, if it becomes possible, a mediation, compromise, and reparation in the situation. Understanding the causes and nature of the situation is another method of combat against resentment and its hatred that is brewed from it.


For fear, understanding the cause of the fear and comprehending both how to defend against the threat and the nature of the being, structure, or composition of it helps alleviate the fear and reassures the frightened of how to defend against it. Compassion is also a massive aid in combating fear and its hatred. compassion, empathy, and love prevent you from succumbing to the destructive intentions and behavior that happens when you are afraid of something. all of these prevent you from succumbing to the malice and hate that fear (and disgust and resentment) can and does bring.


For disgust, understanding, a strong stomach and faculty regarding the grossness and revulsion that constitutes disgusting things, and compassion for the person who unintentionally causes disgust (and if you are strong enough and patient enough to do this...compassion for the ones who did an intentional thing that causes disgust and its hatred) are the best way to overcome disgust and its hate. disgust is a manageable and overcomeable emotion and reaction. Doctors and emergency responders manage it all the time before it leads to its particularly lethal hate. Disgust inhibits understanding, and so does fear and resentment and all the hate they cause, and when you can't understand something, you can't repair something, heal something, or solve and resolve something. Disgust may be the hardest of these "causes" to overcome and manage, especially when it comes from intentional acts of others, but if you can you are able to move through life more comfortably and solve problems more easily. Overcoming hatred in general and all of its causes and roots help you do this.

No One is a Lost Cause

     There is not a single human being on the planet who is a lost cause. There is hope for anyone and everyone who still draws breath in this world. Even into eternity and the realm of God there is always hope and mercy to be found for those who lost so much and had such misfortune or detriment fall upon them in life. Jesus is the great rescuer of the lost. The great savior of sinners and broken people. The great returner of broken dreams.       To Jesus, there is no such thing as a lost cause, a hopeless case, or an impossible situation.  Even though people lose hope sometimes and sink into despair, eternity and the Kingdom of God is a place where hope never dies and the lost are found eternally, never to be lost again.  With God, all things are possible, and all those lost are findable.       Jesus specializes in the mending broken hearts and broken dreams, and eternity is a long time to have dreams fulfilled and rest i...

The Fortress of Neptune

Some people strive to turn their mind into a fortress—a Stoic "inner citadel," an impenetrable bastion of psychological and spiritual security that no danger or enemy can conquer or destroy. It’s a noble and intriguing endeavor, turning your mind into a fortress. But for myself? I would forgo the citadel and instead transform my mind into a bottomless ocean. An unfathomably deep ocean that I can retreat into, like a submarine capable of withstanding the abyssal depths. The further down you descend into this ocean, the more untouchable and unreachable you become to your enemies. It is the mental "Fortress of Neptune." Where a bottomless ocean of living water and living thoughts serves to be my impenetrable Fortress and infinite Bastion. If a bottomless ocean is my Fortress, what could destroy me? A bottomless ocean of thought and ideas. A bottomless ocean of psychological and spiritual security—indestructible and unconquerable. It’s hard to conquer an ocean and impos...

Infinitization

The Infinitization Process: A Comprehensive Exploration Introduction Infinitization refers to the process of taking a concept, thing, or system—typically understood as having limitations or boundaries—and expanding it to possess infinite depth, infinite complexity, infinite diversity, infinite nuance, and infinite dynamics. This idea transcends traditional philosophical and metaphysical approaches to existence by positioning the infinite as not merely a characteristic of God, the cosmos, or abstract mathematics but as a quality that can be applied to concepts, systems, and relationships. This process connects deeply to your previous theories on Logos, words-as-sets, words-as-fields, and the nature of infinite existence. Through this framework, the infinitization of concepts can be seen as the ultimate act of creation, transformation, and expansion.
