Everybody already knows which of God's people the Christians have to hate; I've searched the whole damned web and can't find a single page listing the people I should hate if I want to be an atheist. Can you help, please?

The Atheist position is indeed hopeless. The believer has hope. If there is a God and there is life after death then the believer wins. If there is no God or no life after death the believer loses nothing. On the other hand, the Atheist loses badly if he wakes up to discover himself in the afterlife. In sum, if there is no afterlife both the believer and the Atheist are safe. But if there is an afterlife then the Atheist loses. The only one who can possibly lose is the Atheist.
On the other hand, it is the Atheist who is wasting his life. His life has no purpose but temporary enjoyment. But such enjoyment is always tempered by nagging doubts about whether or not life is heading in the right direction. It is the believer who lives in quiet confidence that God's promise is true.
Man cannot attain to his true humanity and acquire peace of mind unless he realises this aim for which he was created. But how can he do this! God, being merciful and Just, has helped him in many ways. He granted him an originally good nature that is inclined to know and serve its true Lord. He granted him a mind that possesses a moral sense and the ability to reason. He made the whole universe a natural book full of signs that lead a thinking person to God. But to make things more specific, to give him more detailed knowledge of his Lord, and to show him in a more detailed manner how to serve Him, God has been sending down verbal messages through His prophets chosen from among men, ever since the creation of man.

Well, that's news to me, especially since we Christians are supposed to love everybody.
To be a good hard-core atheist, just hate the people who believe in God. Send them to prison, and kill them once in a while.
That's what the atheist communist thugs did in the Soviet Union and elsewhere.

You dont have to hate anyone. By the way that is a stereotype you have of Christians. I am a Christian and God calls us to love one another, not hate.

Preferably no one.
However, foster a careful, but respectfully expressed, loathing for all theistic philosophy. Keep this distinct from the people who hold those philosophies though.
Respect the people at all times, blast the ideology without mercy.

yo don't hate lol
you don't need to hate anyone. Look for the best in people and don't judge them before you get to know them. Besides, if you believe there is no God than what does it matter what anyone else believes. My advice, hate stupid people

Hate is such a strong word, can't you just dislike them? It is quite funny though that you "want" to be an atheist, if you were one wouldn't you already know that?

Well, who you hate is up to you. That is the great thing about the USA, you cant hate whoever you want. If you want to hate the jews...then hate the jews, If you want to hate mexicans...then hate mexicans. I will fight 4 the right to hate freely....good luck in your quest.

I think it's pretty safe to hate lawyers and politicians. You should hate christians too, because we will forgive you. There you go, the whole list.
