One may be supposed to hate those individuals or cultures that hold values that contradict and are a threat to one's own value system, like maybe atheists, communists, pagans, or capitalists. One is supposed to love those values which are of consequence to one. The conflicts that exist between what is of consequence and what is not, produce love/hate emotional sensory systems which lead to violence of every sort.

      EQUIPOLENT EMOTIONAL DYNAMIC

The Equipolent Emotional Dynamic is an emotional system which is not antagonistic, or which does not polarize what is of consequence into antithetical dichotomies. Consequential Value is unified. This means that opposite attributes such as cold and hot are not considered as antithetical, but as complimentary to each other. The heat of the sun is modified by the cool of the shade. Natural change which may be considered in opposition to human created states and well being, can be considered and defined as promoting the continued existence of states which are pre-existent to the change, by transformation, destruction and regeneration. Storms destroy elements of the natural world, human property and sometimes lives. If one has the perspective that storms promote the existence of what already is, as the natural world, then one may possess no animosity toward storms. Can one blame the wind for blowing?

The Equipolent Emotional Dynamic is non-antagonistic. This means Consequential Values which do not correspond to the natural world or which are subject to the destruction of the elements, are not valued and considered of consequence. Emotionally antagonistic dichotomies are not created. All humans have commonality such as the equality of the human condition on the planet, a same or similar sensory system, families, children, etc., and have commonality with all other creatures.
