Yes. I've heard this before, lol, and I love it.
As long as "Love the sinner, hate the sin" is used in conversation, I will agree with this statement.

Neither can ever been viewed greater useful through fact neither can ever teach or disprove no count if or no longer there's a God or diverse Gods. Atheists and theism are polar opposites, and with such consistently comes debate/argument/conflict. an identical occasion could be the chilly conflict which grow to be a "conflict" between 2 polar opposite varieties of government. They argue through fact they think the different is erroneous and firmly stand with the aid of that concept with or without evidence.

What makes an individual? His actions, his thoughts, his words?
Religion would be part of that "individual." At what point does hating a person's beliefs and actions lead to hating the person? It must at some point, otherwise what you aren't hating is nothing.
Now, it is not enough for me to hate a person for being a theist. But when that person spews hate because he does not understand his OWN FAITH, does not ever QUESTION, I am appalled and quite tempted to hate. Sometimes it makes me want to despise everything.
I guess I'm a pretty angry person, but can you blame me?
Will you hate me, or will you hate my anger?

I agree with that other guy.
Theists are the victims here, with only a few of them (the preachers) being the root cause. Even the preachers are victims to some degree.
Smart people can remain trapped in a religion for a long time. Had things not gone the way they did, I might have remained religious. I know my sister is still strongly religious, despite her being fairly smart, as well. (My brother dumped the religion after he moved out of our parents' house, though.)

I don't 'love' any of them, but then I don't hate them either. What I 'dislike' is when some one asks a legitimate question and the best they can come up with is 'god id the answer'. That is not an answer it is a statement of an opinion. I have attemped on several ocassions to have realistic dicussions with them and all you get is mindcr*p. Nothing intelligent.

Well, I feel more hate from fundie theists than I ever feel from atheists. I have to say the answer is, yes.

I would accept the person if we got along, and ignore "Theism". I'm not an atheist, so it's none of my business. I would dislike if they tried to force their beliefs on me, however.

That's an accurate assessment... The Catholic-schoolgirl style theists are rather worth "loving".

Anyone who keeps their beliefs out of my face is fine by me. Absolutely everyone has something about them that you won't agree with--but hating them for it? That's a good way of living life alone and bitter, isn't it?
No, I don't hate all believers. Nor do I hate religion, so long as it can be accepted by said believer that I myself don't believe!
