I don't know that I would say I hate the truth. However, it is a rather inconvenient and slippery bugger. It seems to be a bit of a shape shifter or master of illusion. Just when one thinks they have gotten a finger or two on it, it slips from ones grasp like a slippery brook trout. Other times, just when one is settling in and getting comfortable with oneself, it comes poking through the bottom of the recliner like a broken spring and pokes one in the buttox. I do wish it would make up its mind whether it wants to hang out with me or not.

No, I don't hate the truth, but I do get a bit out of sorts when you don't believe me.

Look at the main theme in the Bible.... it is the Kingdom.

Look at the Gospels. They talk of the good news of the Kingdom.


As for 'hate', maybe those posters should not have used that word.


But to the bulk of the people living in the World, the Kingdom, the main theme of the Bible, is foreign to them. Discussing the Kingdom was the main reason why Jesus was executed and then later, many of his followers.

In that case, do the bulk of the people 'love' hearing about the Kingdom or is it the opposite?

Everyone has an "I". The society can't hate the Ego, it's built on top of it, this is why we have politics and we are not one for all and all for one, ha ha ha

But can the Ego hate society, or is that self-hate?

yes we are the ego, or that is how we operate anyway, as if that is us
and ego hates anything that threatens it and its modes of operation
based on how egos respond to truth, id use a stronger word than hate
people nailed a man to some wood, to die slowly over time and in great pain
that is more than hate, i can hate going to work

The truth is Divine Love.
The unselfish kind of Love.

The world Loves themselfies.
So the truth deletes themselfies and stirs
the Heart to Love others.
To Be selfieless hurts. Owie.
People don't care to hurt, so they hate it.

Jesus said: Deny your selfies.

Religions don't like being questioned and can't handle skepticism too well. They view your lack of belief as an insult, you 'hating' it and rejecting the 'great message' of a god or guru.
