I disagree. People are their ways. Either I accept what they do or I don't.
"I love him, but I hate what he does". No, you don't love him. You are being dishonest with yourself.
That is my opinion.
Then how do you decide how to act yourself?
And no one ever said hate. You can disagree with an action and not hate it.
I disagree with torture. I disagree that torture should be allowed. I do not hate the people that torture others. I love them but feel their actions should not be allowed because of its effects on society and others.
I think, perhaps, it is something you just simply do not understand. I am not being dishonest with myself when I say that I love the one who tortures. I see myself in them, them in myself, but I do not agree that those actions which we are both capable of should be carried out. There is no dishonesty.
