What are you talking about?
Hatred is not necessarily bad. God hates or abhors what is bad, and urges us to do so. (Psalm 97:10) Among the things God hates are "hands shedding innocent blood, robbery, unrighteousness, and violence. (Proverbs 6:16-19, Psalm 11:5) So there is proper abhorrence or hatred, and improper hatred, such as maliciously hating our fellow man because of racial, ethnic, national, or even personal differences. (1 John 3:15) God is the source of proper hatred of bad things, but outstandingly, "God is Love." (1 John 4:8)
Satan is the source of the evil hatred that is so prevalent today. (John 8:44)

I agree.
I do not think that Love has any opposites. It is the basic component of all that is.
I believe that Hate is the inversion of Love -- or some form of negative emotion that actually gets its power from the Love (perhaps injured Love) that is at the very center of it.
That is why, I think, that Love is at the root of every situation that needs correcting.
If a situation appears to be based upon Hate, if we look deeply enough into the situation, we will find some place where Love has been dishonored, damaged, denied -- and that is the point where re-connection or healing can occur -- to resolve, or dissolve, what we call Hate -- by honoring the Love present once again.
Name me one thing that didn't come from god if he is The creator.
Lies.
Isaiah 45:7 reads, I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

if god didn't create lies, because that's "different" - how are love, trust, honesty etc. not different in the same way? why selectively give credit? because some things are nicer than others?
"some things aren't things, but decisions, silly!"... but it remains to be credibly shown how those decisions aren't inextricably linked with the material universe, AND why icky decisions are "not god's fault", but all the nice bits are to god's glory. satan tempts, god protects and gives strength. seems biased, to put it mildly.
actually, that's not "biased", that's PLAUSIBLE DENIABILITY in big red blinking neon letters.. let those who have eyes in the head see.
When he is the THE creator then EVERYTHING comes from God. Direct or indirect is something different.

Atheist propaganda. Not that it doesn't have some merit, but its purpose is to discredit religion.
You're thinking of a different forum.
Evil is not always synonymous with wrongdoing or wickedness. The Hebrew word rendered 'evil' is variously translated as 'bad', 'gloomy', 'ugly', 'calamitous'. God creates calamity for the wicked, as he did when he brought the global deluge to destroy an ancient world. After the Flood, God said "never again shall I call down evil upon the ground on man's account." (Genesis 8:21) So God creates evil (when necessary) but always in righteousness and justice.
