But in the end hate will turn on it's self and distroy it's self.. Love on the other hand will not force it's self on another and permit hate to do as it will. Love is not afraid of hate, but hate cannot stand love..

If the whole world was full of extreme hate, eventually they would kill each other off for pleasure, until only one is left...and he would hate himself and everything around him and eventually kill himself too.

Hate doesn't sound that great.

But fear is fifferent.
Fear is a natural instinct so it is more powerful.

Fear causes paranoia which would lead to mistrust and eventually to hate and death.

love and hate by far surpass anything, only despair and sorrow come close.

Love.

But not love for another person, only love for ourselves.

Fear is the most powerful by far.

Make people afraid and you can make them do anythng.

Take a look at the examples -

-religion - make people afraid of hell and burning fire and torture when they die, and they will blindly follow what you tell them to avoid such things.

- United States - tell people that they are in a threat of terrorism bigger than ever before and that if they dont sourender their civil rights to yuo, they will all die - so they do.

etc...

Fear above all is the most powerful....Fear,unlike hate and love is a natural emotion in which every being will feel...Hate is sometimes temporary and is based on cause and effect...Love takes time and doesn't last forever..Lust is the weakest but happens quite often...Fear will always exist...

i agree with lil bitchiness

This reminds me off a topic when I first joined, my their we some good arguments. But out of the four the most powerful are love and fear, although I usually lean towards fear just pipping love at the post. The shear motivational and influential power of the two far outstrips the others, but in the end fear can usually have more of an effect, a greater range of effects, and on a far larger, more encompassing scale then love. Love is great, but a deep down personal thing. Fear on the other hand builds states, keeps millions in line and so on.

i think it depends on the person.

for me, love is the most powerful.

✅ And gets you assassinated.

if love isnt stronger there is no hope for anything and i dont think there is love without hate or hate without love

I think Lust leads to jealousy which leads to hate.. Im not sure if love is in the equation.. o_O

Within a person, Love can end and happen again, as well as hate, a person will always have lust but only for a momment, and as far as fear goes, it's something that will always exist and keep a person going. For an example Fear of Dying...

Hate & Lust

Fear..

All hate has its genesis in fear.
We often dont act on lust for FEAR of what the consequences may be
When we love, we FEAR we will lose it...
