Human brains are different than those of other animals. Research has shown that a highly developed part of our brain called the amygdala plays a major role in violent rage and hate. Other animals besides humans have an amygdala, but in less complex brains the amygdala is not as connected to other parts of the brain as it is in humans. After operations that deactivate the amygdala, uncontrollably aggressive monkeys become tame and docile, other animals coexist peacefully with natural enemies – vicious dogs coexist peacefully with cats, and cats with mice. The amygdala in humans is part of our highly complex limbic system. This part of our nervous system is key in human emotions and automatic responses. A person’s amygdala is linked to the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. Interestingly, our amygdala is also linked to the area in our speech center that controls obscenities.
We hate because we feel at the deepest levels of our psyche that we are being threatened. It is easier to understand a person’s hate when they or their loved ones are directly threatened with harm but harder to understand hate and violence when it is directed at a person or group that is not a direct threat to someone’s physical wellbeing. Challenges to our belief system, our way of making meaning for our lives, can evoke the powerful primal fight or flight response. The same advances that link our primal responses to our meaning systems are also what allow us to overcome these responses. We are not at the mercy of the fight or flight response or the primitive part of our neural system that allows only for generalizations.
