Thats your special characteristic, if you cannot hate other religions, you are not a religious yourself. BTW I am an Atheist and I hate no religions, I only screw them bad.

It is not your BEING a christian / muslim /xyz that makes you hate others.
You must remember that being a good follower /practitioner of your religion means you follow that religion. But some people promote (a wrong belief) that you are a good christian (or follower of xyz religion) if you hate people of other religions.
Hence learn to tolerate and accomodate. Hate seems to be a personal trait rather than that taught by a religion.
It may also be possible you are a christian minority living in a society dominated by a majority of hindus and buddhists. It is also possible they are not tolerant of you. In that case the LORD's world is huge. Migrate to a land where you can practice your religion freely.

as I am an angel why do i despise ignorance and christians? eveyrone has thier own bias on who is right and who is not. the Hindus and Buddhists have been threteaned by Muslims for centuries. It doesnt surprise me any that christians have to start in on the Hindus and Buddhists as well. religion is just something to hide behind, and so is the its not a religion its a relationship rhetoric.

You don't. You love them. You love them so much that you would give up everything you knew if it meant that they would become Christians, too.
Jesus says not only to love our those who love us, but to love those who hate us as well. To me, this would suggest that we should love everyone.
I suspect that if you asked a Buddhist, he would tell you he loves us. And, when asked why he did not consider becoming a Christian, Gandhi answered that he loved Jesus and His teachings, but he could not identify with Christendom as a whole because it generally does not follow Jesus. He was right. Christians are among the only people in the world who do not see Jesus and his teachings as clearly non-violent. So there's proof that one of the most famous Hindus in the world loved Christ. (Maybe not Christians, but it's a start.)

Obviously as a christian you shouldn't hate anyone, but show tolerance for peoples differences. Hindus and Buddhists are very different from our beliefs and sometimes we fear what we don't understand.

I think your User name already tell people you are not some "friendly" one, so it maybe not good if you trying to create some miss understanding or conflict here with Hindus or Buddhists with Christian.

A Christian is "Christ-like". Jesus hated the religions NOT the people. It seems people have a hard time differentiating between the two. If you hate anyone its the same as murdering them in your heart. Therefore you are not Christian - just a Troll posting garbage.

Hate is the absence of love. If you truly love God, you would love all equally for all are God's children. God has Unconditional Love for each one of us on this planet. We all came from the one and same Source, the same Creator which is God.
You need to stop seeing people as WHAT they are, rather you should start seeing all people as ONE for each one of us has the Divinity within.
Maybe you should re-read Jesus teachings of Unconditional Love for all. Maybe you should really question yourself "Are you truly Christian?" when you hate others? Christ is the embodiment of L O V E and yet you feel hate in your heart.
Why do you call yourself Christian?

How can you really be a Christian and Hate anyone!
The bible says in 1 John 4:19-21:
If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
And in John 3:16:
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
And in 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
In conclusion you need to learn how to extend Love, even to your enemies!

The concept of hatred isn't a Christian one. If you truly hate other religions, you need to talk to your pastor because you are not reflecting the love exemplified by Jesus Christ. You don't have to hate something with which you don't agree. You can respectfully and lovingly disagree.

Cause you aren't a true Christian. It is never okay for a person professing to be a Christian to hate anyone for any reason. Our goal is to love. Just to love. No matter what.
