There is a strange disconnect with people's thinking. If they claim to hate God, they are acknowledging Him. People get angry when they find themselves unhappy within their circumstances, but wickedness never was happiness.
Those who profess not to know God or find the notion as nonsense, are stating their own blindness. Because they can not 'sense' Him, they deny Him. It's a silly position when you think about it. Many of the things we know we are unable able to see, touch or hear, but validate in other ways. I have never seen an atom, but I know they are there, we have built devices that operate upon the laws of physics predicted by them. We believe in Dark Matter, but we have never tasted, seen, touched or heard it. Only through inference do we know that it exists, if it really does. I know God lives, because I have had experiences in my life that have given, at least to me, needed answers, solid proof. These experiences are available for those who really care enough to seek them and are honest with their results.
Once I understood, I could see that the organization of a living cell, the nearly perfect condition of the Earth in its position in the solar system, the size of the moon, the stability of our sun, the structure of the Universe down to the smallest of flowers were living proof of a Creator. To these others, it is all mere chance -- though not one of them, given all the technology, the best lab equipment or conditions in the world can produce a single turnip from raw chemical reaction or compounds. It is impossible that it happen through mere chance and always has been. But they believe it to be true!
What takes more blind faith?
These others would rather charge God for their problems without looking to Him for answers. They hate Him because they have never invited him in so He is not with them to give the guidance that they need to progress through their problems and suffering.

Too often they have had a bad experience either with overly strict religious parents or someone at church who turned them off to "religion".
Unfortunately there are "Christians" who don't really have the love of God in their hearts. They are struggling with their own imperfections and seem to think they have to do their best to "enforce" God's laws on everybody else. They actually think they are helping God. But in truth they drive people away. I've seen it.
Now on the other hand there are those who see the evil happening in the world and they adopt the attitude that any God worth following wouldn't allow such things to happen so they convince themselves there is no God.
They don't understand there are two opposing forces battling for their loyalty and that they are mere pawns in the struggle.
God must be patient, He must allow satan time to show his true character to all the universe so that none will say that God was unfair to satan. God has given satan numerous chances and many thousand of years to repent but he chooses not to from the pride and jealousy of his own selfishness. A minister once told me that he is certain that when Jesus died on the cross that was the last chance satan had to repent and now for him, there can be no forgiveness.
Remember that only one third of the angels followed satan. That means that two thirds remained with God. There are twice as many good, and faithful angels as there are evil. They are watching how this struggle plays out. God must show the universe He is fair in all things, or none would trust Him.

you spot, while evaluating eternal existance, there are 2 viewpoints. The materialistic universe vs. a spiritual, all-efficient and knowledgable spirit. do you desire to study them? Can they be in comparison? enable me assist you to realize on some information with regard to the textile universe. all the flexibility interior the universe is being transferred and is gradually dropping that is power. that's scientific regulation that all and sundry power is being transferred and dropping that is power. that's stated as entropy. for this reason, if the universe have been eternal, precise now my buddy, there could be not extra circulate of power using fact if the textile universe became into eternal, power might have some time past been thoroughly transferred and there could be a consistant, homogenious temperature via the completed universe. That disproves an eternal universe. yet all of us understand that for the textile to be in existance it might would desire to return from someplace. the only different element that would have got here approximately could be self-creation, which could be impossible. this might require be counted and power that would not exist to correctly known itself in non-existance, then create itself from no longer something. this could be a diverse impossibility. Deep down atheists understand this. yet that's extra effective than in basic terms philosophy that all of us understand this. all of us understand this using fact abiogenesis is impossible. The fossil checklist helps creation. organic and organic complexity is labeled as a gadget. Evolutionists contradict themselves while they label residing organisms as machines, yet state that machines can't come into existance via random technique. That feels like a contradiction, would not it?

People always need to blame someone else for their woes. No one wants to take responsibility for their own actions. I know. That was me almost 4 years ago. Before I found Jesus and the blinders came off. God was not the problem - I was. He is my best friend and Savior. The King of Kings, the Lord of Lords.

I've never met anyone who says 'I hate God'. People who believe in God usually worship him/her/it/them... but the Bible, most notably the Old Testament, does make God out to be something of a genocidal maniac.

I don't hate god, I just don;t believe...I have enough stress in my life, and to hate someone/something takes a lot of energy...hate is a strong word when used correctly, and I can't imagine hating more than a few things/people (i'monly at about 2)

Firstly, to hate god you have believe that god exists. I don't believe in the existence of any sentient god-like being, so no, I don't hate, love or even care about your imaginary friend.

1. The entire old testament
2. According to the Christian religion, he had his own son murdered so that he could change his own rules.
PS, I don't hate, like or even care about your god, because I've never seen any proof any such critter as a god exists.
Have a nice day.

Please understand that disbelief in God is entirely different than hating God.
When Atheists are confronted with Christianity, we often will point out the inconsistencies and cruelties of the God you supposedly place your trust in, all in an effort to point out how absurd your belief is.
However, in so doing, you cannot assume that we are trying to convince your God is evil, but instead that your belief is nonsensical. Since there is no God, there is nothing to hate.

People who hate God are people who experienced so much pain and hurt -that they blame for God everything.
I know its kinda unfair but their hurt made them angry - and if they are not able to resolve their issues - they end up not believing in him as well.
