Uther was convinced that they are guilty, Morgana knows that those she killed were innocent. Uther needed a reason, which was practicing or having magic, Morgana doesn't need any reason but kills to terrorize and to spread fear, also to put a plan into action. Uther suffered from a deep emotional shock and lost the one he loved the most, Morgana didn't. Morgana wants to destroy, no matter what or who, Uther wanted to build and to protect everyone. Morgana enjoys the misery of others and tortures, Uther didn't enjoy sentencing someone to death or the misery of thers and he didn't torture (except when Aredian tortured Gaius). Morgana makes evil plans and feels great pleasure when imagining the outcome, Uther wanted to get rid of those he felt threatened by. Uther always wanted peace, Morgana wants war. And Uther would have never hurt his children, would have laid down his life for them at any time and gave them all the love he could whereas Morgana wants to kill her friends and killed her own father after trying to drive him insane and after breaking him mentally, emotionally and physically until he was only a shell of his former self. Last but not least, Uther was capable of deep love for others, Morgana doesn't love or even like anyone. While Uther tried to do the right thing, even when it wasn't in regard to magic, Morgana intentionally tries to do the wrong things and is aware of it.

There is nothing they have in common. If it is only about hating something or someone then it's not enough because they differ in their thoughts, feelings and actions. Going by that argument, everyone who hates someone would be like Uther (or Morgana, for that matter). I think the differences between the two of them are so very obvious, I'm really surprised that those comparisons come up all the time.
