Who said we hate anyone other than Satan?
Love the person, hate the sin.

A true born again Christian should not "hate" anyone. There is a slogan that states, "Love the sinner, hate the sin." I as a Christian do not hate anyone according to their lifestyle, but I do not approve of what they do. For example, I do not hate my uncle because he is of a different religion, but I do not agree with his religious beliefs. I do not hate a person who follows a homosexual lifestyle, but I hate his/her homosexual practices because it is unnatural and an abomination before God. God created humans as heterosexual beings, and homosexuality is a violation to God's intentions. Sometimes our words can make us seem hateful, but I think that if we directed our words a little more precisely, we would be clearer on what we are "hatin' on." We are hating on the actions of a person, not the person him/herself.

A true Christian doesn't hate anyone. Christians are followers of Jesus. He taught of to love each other - even our enemies. He also taight us love, compassion, and forgiveness. I pray for atheists to seek the Lord and feel His presence. I pray for the forgiveness of homosexuals because their behavior is listed as a sin in the Bible. I pray that they will also seek the Lord and change their ways. I care about the salvation of all mankind.

I'm a Christian and I don't hate either. One of my very best friends is an atheist, and I sing in church choir with one homosexual and one lesbian who are both good friends of mine.
Sorry to burst your misguided bubble.

Such an unkind question. I don't hate homosexuals or atheists. I pray for people who are in sin and don't know the Lord.

Atheists are our enemies...they hate and torment us.
Homosexuals are mislead by a number of factors...they are not necessarily our enemies, just non-believers.
We are not supposed to hate either. We are supposed to love both.
I'm not altogether fond of anchovies on pizza. I think I can say I hate that, but I don't hate pizzaria owners.

I personally don't hate anyone. However, I do think atheists are clueless and will awaken to a bad nightmare come true one day.
