Originally posted by karoly aczelWe usually only hate those whose influence we cannot avoid. That could include a school bully, prison guard, and even a president. It may even include people we love or used to love like ex-spouses - because of our love, we cannot let go, so we are forced to face what we don't like.
I dont hate anyone. I do however dislike some people. Is there a difference?

Whether there is or isn't a difference is a matter of self reflection.
If you're going to associate hate as essentially a stronger manifestation of disliking then the connection can be easily seen. Let's assume a person is in personal progress of trying to eliminate all hatred that they hold. For an efficient job, one would take out the roots and foundation- in this case (again if we associate hate as a more passionate dislike) he would eliminate his disliking of others. In this sense, since this arises that arises, there is no difference between the two but in contexts.
