Sure I could show hate and call people names, I'm free to do that. And since I agreed to the rules of these forums, I would be subject to the consequences -- warning and banning. In this case, you broke that rule and your name-calling post was deleted. I find your posts valuable usually, so I hope that you will follow the rules going forward. But you are free to do as you wish, of course.
The only thing I'm sure that hatred teaches is more hatred. It's a downward spiral. The person at the receiving end is not likely to *get* what a hater is intending to *give* him. It feels really, really bad to me to nurture hatred in myself, and my aim in creating a life I love is to think thoughts that feel good when I think them. I also would prefer that the world at large operate on a love model rather than a hate model, and I think it's important to BE what I want to SEE.
So, all in all, hatred as a teacher does not work for me.
