Do you think there are any beliefs which makes a person believing them a horrible person, or is it always 'hate the belief, not the person'? (lemm.ee)

I had a friend who was a great friend in so many ways, she was clever and very helpful when I needed anything, also would ask me for the same when she needed help. She told me once that it's way better to kill someone else, than yourself, because then you have time to repent before you die. What a horrible belief! But it's not like she actually went around killing people, it was hypothetical.

I don't have the answer but the belief did not make her act in any terrible way.
