Hate vs. Disagree

People in the world have the words hate and disagree mixed up. Just because you disagree with someone doesn't mean you hate them. And if you hate someone you don't really care to agree or disagree because your mind is already made up. For example, the KKK hates black people. They don't care if it's a black convict or a black missionary, the hate them both the same. < A mother can disagree with the profession her child chooses( teacher instead of doctor) but that doesn't mean she hates her child. I don't agree with people that do drugs( including smoking weed) but I don't hate them. If one of them came to me for help, I wouldn't turn them away, I would help them the best way I could. There is love in disagreement. Sometimes there is even protection in disagreement.For example, Parents may disagree with certain clothes their children may want to wear(mini skirt) or certain people they want to have out with(drug dealers),  in order to try to protect them from the dangers of the world and a bad reputation.
I personally believe that the reason so many people get upset when someone, especially a loved one disagrees with their lifestyle is because of conviction. There is a part of them that knows that the person is right and that what they are doing is wrong. Especially if that person's disapproval is based on the truth that is the word of God. Be Beautiful, Be Blessed
