It's a free world. Why would you care about public opinion on your own beliefs. If you don't like a person because of something they do that you don't necessarily believe in, then that's all you. You don't need to listen to others about their feelings on your feeings. That is what makes this country great. I don't particularly care for President Bush, and some people would disagree with me I don't care what they think and they shouldn't care what I think. We can agree to disagree.

I think that the person and the behavior need to be separated. It's easy to associate the person with their behavior - and easy not to like a person who behaves badly - but really it's the behavior that is the problem rather than the person.
Chastising someone who disassociates themselves from a person who behaves in a negative manner is the same thing as chastising the person with the bad behavior - it all comes down to personal choices.

You can dislike anyone you choose. But be careful about what you say . . . the Thought Police are watching!! Political correctness will come down on you if you rile the wrong specially-protected group.
By the way, it's open season on Christians.

You can believe any hate-filled thing you want. Just keep it to yourself.
When you discuss your bigotry in an open forum, it becomes hate speech. This is NOT covered by the Constitution. If done in association with violence, that turns such violence into a hate crime.

The down side of being better than everyone else is that people tend to think you're pretentious.

I think that's one of the most valid reasons for not liking someone. Who cares if others don't like it?

you do not have to like everyone, but you should never let your hate esculate past your own boundries.
what i mean is this. you have no right to push you beliefs onto others. you have no right to reach out and hurt someone because of hate. you have no right to push your hate onto your kids.
let go of hate

Coming on yahoo answers to call them 'queers" is a little more than not liking them.
