for one they don not have eyes to see, Gods laws are foolishness to them...
Also they are still suffering form the fruit of knowledge, They think they're gods, and when Gods law opposes there sins they become defensive...

I don't think that people hate God, but the people who say they speak for God. The Christian religion states that it is the one true religion and if that is true then when Christians make stupid statements like that God tests people they think that it was Gods fault. It am not a follower of the Christian religion or that religions God. My Goddess loves her children and she makes it clear that the toxins and poisons that people contaminate this planet and it is these toxins that need to be blamed and the people who spread them about, rather than the God and Goddess who gave us dominion over the planet.
That is why we Pagans and Wiccan tend to have a bad attitude towards Christians. They are so wrapped up in the afterlife that they don't think twice about blaming all the wrong people and deities for what a little common sense would tell them. If your God doesn't love you, change deities. And if someone close to you is sick then why don't you check your environment and not rant at your deity!

If God does exist as the Judeo-Christian-Islamic texts say then he is omnipotent and omnicognizant.
So he can do anything, and knows everything.
That means that he has created the universe knowing everything about everything that has happened, is happening, and will happen throughout time.
It also means that he has the power to have create the universe so that anything he wanted to happen, throughout time, would happen.
The only logical conclusion is that everything has been planned by God. Every birth, every joy, every heroic act.
At the same time every pain, every death, all the suffering and misery in the universe is all part of what God wanted to happen, AND had the ability to prevent.
Everything that happens, the good and the bad, is the responsibility of an omnipotent, all knowing God, by the very definitions of the words.
So, either everything bad is his fault.
Or he is not omnipotent and omnicognizant.
You have to pick one, or deny the obvious.

Dude - look around. While I don't hate God/dess and don't blame everything on Him/Her, I realize that the Christian/Muslim/Jewish version of God is tearing our world apart.
If people of faith - any faith - would just keep their faith to themselves and allow others to believe what they want to, then the world would be a better place. Does this ever happen?
No - It doesn't happen. History shows us again and again that the arguements about Religion (and religion and faith are NOT the same thing) has pitted us against each other from the beginning of time.
I can understand why some people hate God - and I think it is because the world revolves around fighting about who He loves and who He judges and how He wants people to punish each other. All of that ugliness breaks their spirits and they would rather hate God than deal with all of this anymore.

it is not God they hate but i underestand what the question is. it is the things done in the name of God that are not liked. the decisions made by men that those who beleive the decisions should be left to God were heretics and should be burned at the stake and those with different religious ideas . the constant missapropriation of God's name to give credence to their own wars and what they wanted. the use of Christ to kill .The perversion of the faith into something not about GODor Jesus anymore but used as a cover for their desires for conquest and the like.the message is still there it has just been distorted over time. it is really their own and upto them to rescue eachother from theirown depravity they have often failed though they are still trying i think we will all suceed though . that is stop killing and inventing new horrible means to . no point in suggesting any ways out as it there would be detractors who would scoff at any ideas and not enough known.though i wonder about people of GOD hate other people of GOD that have Star of David or theones with Star the others might there be some unity between this ,the cross,and the crescent from middle eastern flagon green field. one of my pet ideas

Like it or not God has made himself evident in creation and people who claim to "not believe" have actually made a choice not to believe, he put his commands in our hearts as well and when we go against those commands (aka conscience) and we break them it become easier to continue to do so, just as it become easy to believe the lie that God does not exist. I would be willing to bet that every person who claims to be atheist has at one time believed. The bible says that one day all these "unbelievers" will stand and shake their fist at the very God they say does not exist. As to answer your question on why they hate him, I am sure there are many reasons why they do,but that would be up to them to say why.

Some people hate God for not intervening while the men he called to the priesthood were molesting children. Some people forgive Him , and others don't.

some people hate God because they fear God, and do not understand God. and to why people think everything is his fault, I have this to say.
you can say everything is God's fault because he created everything right? so if someone dies, it's God's fault
on the other hand, if i put metal spikes out on the road, and people run over them, is it my fault? or is it the fault of the person who ran over the metal spikes.

I don't hate God any more than I hate Santa Claus for not bring my Halle Berry for Christmas last year.
