BA,
Some of the people on here seem to think so, but I do not. I believe that each and every person I know has their own opinion about religion but some of us are nearly the same. I am a Christian and I have very strong feelings for a number of people on here that are Agnostics, Muslims, and Atheists. We all get along well because we do not see any reason to make hate out of differences in opinion. Have a wonderful weekend, Young Lady!!
Thank YOU,
Eds
I do NOT understand how a Christian could read HATE into anything that CHRIST said during HIS brief lifetime on earth.

Disbelief gets hate from the believers that's for sure

According to Revelation 21:8 both will take you to the same place. In 1 John we see that those who don't have love, (those who hate) will have no part with God.
8 But the cowardly, unbelieving,[e] abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
The Imperative of Love
10 In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother. 11 For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another, 12 not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother’s righteous.
13 Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you. 14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother[c] abides in death. 15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

My hatred is not based on disbelief. It is towards those who think I must assimilate to their beliefs. Do you disbelieve Osama Bin Laden and his idea of religion? Do you hate him for the manner in which he wishes to force you to assimilate to his life? I feel no hatred towards the people who walk through life telling me what I should and should not believe. My disgust is of the sheep that the "shepherd" has made of you.

No. I wonder why so many people seem to think it does. I kind of like the Jewish/ Christian/ Islamic mythology, in the same way I like the Greco-Roman mythology. I find it fascinating, and think that it provides some great insight into human nature. I find it a little strange that so many take it so seriously today, and I strive to understand why, but I wouldn't say I hate.

If that were the case, then the words "disbelief" and "hate" would be interchangeable. Imagine the possibilities:
"I can't believe this is happening to me!"
"I HATE this is happening to me!"
"I don't believe a word you just said."
"I HATE a word you just said."
"I don't believe in Santa."
"I HATE Santa."
"Non-believers are going to hell."
"God HATERS are going to hell."
Well, I see that last one all the time.

Often times it does. Jesus commanded us to love one another. The Ten Commandments are based on love. He wrote them. Breaking them is sin - 1 John 3:4. Look at the sinful world for a minute. How much love is in it? Now ask yourself, why would someone who vehemently hates the commandments of God so much have any real love for their fellow man? It starts to make sense.

No. To disbelieve would be equivolent to disagree. The attitude toward the person or object of disbelief is seperate and truly optional.

I don't think so. Not in all cases anyways. Just because someone is an Atheist or Agnostic doesn't mean that they hate Christians.

Only to those people who don't like it because some do not believe in what they believe in, which - to me - shows great ignorance and intolerance. Intolerance because they refuse to talk with those who don't believe to find out exactly what they do feel about it... instead they assume things of the Non-Believers.
