Hating people

I caught the tail end of United 93 while flicking away from the international rules game last night. It was the part where they storm the cockpit just before the crash. I found that my emotions were very raw watching it.

Above every other emotion was an intense loathing and hatred for the hijackers. I found myself hoping that they had suffered as they died, and found satisfaction in the fact that one day they will realise that they had it wrong all along, and instead of their 'reward' they will be separated from God for eternity.

I know that I shouldn't feel like that. I know that despite what they have done, anyone deserves a chance at salvation and needs to know what God has done for them through Christ. And yet it's hard for me when I have such an extreme hatred of them for wanting to kill so many others.
