Well, there are certain nice people whom I liked but am totally flabbergasted with the way they are with religion....examples....
A muslim friend who comes into my house but refuses to touch any of my utensils (i am a pork eater)
A Christian friend who goes around bad mouthing muslims and non-Christians ( I am on of those unsaved)
They are nice people but just too zealous in their beliefs.

I think you can love a person and not their religion .... however if you hate their religion it's probably best to understand that if both parties feel respect and practice their religion, the relationship would probably be doomed. Since you'd have to allow for each to express themselves by hating something you wouldn't allow any part of that in ... ex: if one were catholic and one jewish and you won't allow anything jewish into the house then you are denying the other person ... not respecting their beliefs ... therefore the long term on the relationship would not be able to exist without someone giving up on their beliefs.

No, you can't. You're right... that person's religion is part of them. If you hate the religion how can you love the person?
On a side note: Anyone with a small enough mind to literally HATE another religion, or HATE anything, doesn't deserved to be loved back.
HATE in and of itself has got to be near the top of all stupid things.

Evaluate the person as an Individual. If the individual is worthy of loving, then any hatred you feel towards the religion for whatever reason, need not be reflected.

Most religions teach pretty good ethics anyway. I might think him dumb, weak-minded, misguided or perhaps a victim of his social environment (or any combo) but not hate him. Religion is just an idea and ideas change faster than people usually.

it rather is not particularly a hazard to get a proportion, yet i will remark. i do in comparison to faith plenty. It promotes the thought faith is extra helpful as a level of certainty than information. Any rational individual can see that this is illogical. even nevertheless, i do no longer think of much less of somebody because of the fact they persist with a faith. the only ingredient that bothers me is while people carry forth their ideals to those no longer fascinated, or actively seek for debate or argument with those of different ideals. This is composed of different atheists, and maybe they annoy me extra by potential of this, giving us a foul call.

Absolutely. One of my best friends has ideas and principles that I completely despise but I still love her as a person and respect her as an individual. We simply do not discuss the areas we do not agree on.

It is apparent that the one who hates is not a disciple of Christ, because if they were they would hate no one. As much as Jesus despies the pharasees and the scribes, he did not condemn them, in fact he told us to listen to them, but don't do as they do. He even loved those who killed him.

i think in alot of ways religion makes the person who they are as individuals,for me personally i married to someone who's religion is so completely diverse from mine we argue alot and have a difference of opinion on everything, religion effects your everyday way of thinking for example he expects me not to eat foods that are forbidden in his faith and wear a certain type of clothing, its all crap to me but it interferes in our day to day lives so what if you have alot in common in the end religion takes over the relationship.
