That was exactly what I was thinking. Yes, there are people that avoid dogs or cats for different reasons. But that is not hate, it is a preference decision. Hate takes it to another level. I don't particularly like snakes or sharks, but I don't hate them. They are all God's creatures created with a purpose. Who am I to hate anyone or anything. There are many things I don't like. But that is not hate. Hate comes from a much darker place in the heart. People with that kind of dark heart are not to be trusted.
