Odin was actively attempting to make peace with the Jotunn, iirc, and it was Asgardian society in general that still hated them from the previous war (See: Odin's rage at Thor when Thor, under Loki's prompting, fucks up that peace)

By adopting a child of the enemy who'd been cast out, Odin could either have raised Loki as the public poster boy for all Jotunn in Asgard, which would have had pretty much everyone hating him, OR raise Loki as his own son (second-born and therefore not heir, not because of favoritism), make peace with the Jotunn and take steps towards mending that relationship, and THEN be able to tell his son when the time was right. Either way, he would have screwed up, but he WAS trying to do the way that was kinder to the child Loki.
