I disagree that hatred inevitably accompanies anger. Do you believe Jesus hated the money lenders? He certainly was angry at them.

I'm certainly angry at Palin and have no respect for her but I don't hate her. If, however, I were convinced that she were deliberately harming the country for personal gain I would be tempted to hatred. I'd resist but the temptation would be there.

If only for practical reasons and reasons of self-interest, I try to avoid hatred. It clouds the mind.
