Pretty much every major world religion has followers who are guilty of those things. Even some atheists are that way.
I am a Christian and I was lucky enough to grow up in a church that was very accepting and supportive of people even if they didn't necessarily agree on everything. However, I also saw alot of other people who called themselves Christians that treated everyone who was different like they had some kind of disease.
Bottomline, the religion isn't the problem, its the people who claim it who are responsible for dragging it's principles through the mud because no religions I know of teach hate and unforgivness.

First GOD being unmerciful - That guy knew the regulation and he made the choice to interrupt it. Like immediately you destroy the regulation you go through the implications. The Sabbath substitute right into an afternoon for unique worship to GOD and not the rest substitute into to be achieved that day basically. it is why all of the Israelites have been to make sufficient food and artwork two times as not uncomplicated the day earlier so that they had not something to do. 2d GOD being unloving - a million John 4:8 GOD is love. GOD is the author of ALL and made each thing out of love. he's the personification of love. seem around you each thing we see from the Sky's, the sea, the lands and many different animals the food we consume. that is not bland there is plenty style style, scent, experience. third GOD being unforgiving - in the bible it states GOD needs for ALL to realize repentance. seem at Adam and Eve even nevertheless they disobeyed GOD forgave them and caught to his instructions. He ought to of began throughout, yet he did not simply by fact GOD is Merciful, Loving and Forgiving IN each way. Please seem deeper into your bible and get closer to your GOD and pray for him to permit you spot what he's genuinely all approximately:)

The hate is for the eyes of the beholder. I refuse to judge anyone on what religion they choose to believe. I've always said, love them until they can love themselves. Love does bridge all things. As for unforgiving, I'm going to leave that judgment for God.

People can be hateful and unforgiving, but religions cannot because "religion" is a concept, not a being.

correction,
religion cant be hateful or unforgivng,
its the people that follow it that can be.
every religion ive seen so far (oh yes especially islam), have called for peace and forgiveness. but being fair as well.
if people are doing other wise, then dont blame the religion.
if someone has an accident, do u blame the car or the driver????

Hello.
As far as I know, no world religion preaches hate. Many might preach defense, but I have not heard of hate. Why would they wish to hate anyone if they wish to convert them? I believe the leaders of all religions came to bring peace and spread love, showing others how to get along, not to make a new religion. From these people others followed them and as more followed, it got turned into religions.
It's not the religion itself but those who follow. Many of those who claim to be "followers" of their faith actually go against their own faith following wickedness.
Religion come from the Latin word religio meaning to return to bondage.

Take care and God bless.

Don't think it matters, isn't it a case of good people and bad people? Religions are just another gang to belong to, like supporting a football team

Christianity. This is a religion that tells you that you are a sinner. You need to confess it to Jesus and be cleansed with the blood that he shed when he was hanged on the cross. See a sinner. What other religions have that finger pointing at you. What is more, if you don't believe in Jesus, you will go to hell and lose the eternal life which you were entitled when you were born.
