compare and contrast

I know...it has been a while. Life has been busy.

New Panthers' war on whites

and

White supremacists target middle America

The first article in particular raises this question for me: what are the effects of hate that is openly displayed and clearly stated by the 'hater' vs. hate that is subliminally worked into systems and structures and peoples' mindsets? Is one hate "better" than another?

Which is worse...secret societies like the KKK, or obvious and open words and works of hate? Do they have different effects? Have different goals? Target different people? Emerge from different motives?

Psalm 133
1Behold, how good and pleasant it is
when brothers dwell in unity!
2It is like the precious oil on the head,
running down on the beard,
on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes!
3It is like the dew of Hermon,
which falls on the mountains of Zion!
For there the LORD has commanded the blessing,
life forevermore.

I really can't even fathom how much heart-ache we, the creations of God, cause for our creator.
