Quote by TinbadIts more like the
hate carved itself into me, leaving akind of 'buffer zone' for my hate. Its like when people talk about
letting it build up inside you, and then 'snap'.
It looks like you do have some tolerance for hate. However the problem I see is whether the hate in your 'buffer
zone' is ever forgiven or forgotten. It can't just build up forever.
Quote by TinbadMy family has no
such serious problems, I am the only one to be the way I am. I quit sports because I was hated while the rest of my
family close to my generation excel at them. I learn at a faster rate than the rest of the people in my family, and I
hate it. With knowledge comes pain and insanity. When you learn about the way things are put together in the universe,
you begin to fit everything together, learning more and more. You learn about how insignificant we really are. And many
people dont comprehend how gravity, time, and matter, really relate to and affect each other. If they did then the world
would be a little more chaotic.
Speaking to people in discussions like this to share ideals and insight into the mind is just about the only thing that
keeps me on the right side of my razor thin edge of sanity.
And, life never forgives.

For the comments about 'forgetting it', I dont forget, I never can...
Even if they are your relatives, everyone is different to some extent. My (girl) cousin likes rock climbing while I
(guy) am more of an indoor person. I don't have a problem with that... I do like being online alot more than
outdoor activities. Why should I hate the fact that I like different things from my cousin or that we have different
strengths and weaknesses? (she doesn't excel in her studies as much as I do) I just don't have the same views
about this as you do.
"For in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow." - Ecclesiastes
1:18
I don't know about insanity... but being more knowledgable does bring about it's own sadness.
"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you,
Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use
you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on
the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." - Matthew 5:43-45
As for me, I believe in the God of the Bible, and in accordance to his word, I do not hate people or bear
grudges.
"For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether [it be] good, or whether [it be]
evil." - Ecclesiastes 12:14
I believe in his omnipresence, and that he will take into account the wrongs others have committed against me. I believe
in his perfect judgement, to allot wrath on sinners in accordance to what they deserve.
"For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men
their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." - Matthew 6:14-15
It is because of my faith in God that I can forgive. I forgive for my own sake, so that God will also forgive me, a
sinner.
