Again, adding "you will be made fun of for believing these baseless fairytales!" to the Bible was the masterstroke. Because when people are made fun of for believing those baseless fairytales, it doesn't cause them to examine their beliefs; it actually reinforces them, because the Bible was so prescient as to predict that they'd be made fun of for believing in stupid shit. Wow, that Jesus sure is a prophet!
Genesis chapter one and two don't match. If the Bible is perfect, why don't they match? There is no scientific evidence for a worldwide flood, let alone any eyewitness acount for it. There are eyewitness acount for lots of other stuff for five thousand years, at least.
We are not hating every Christian, we are hating when we are hounding into behaving in a specific way because an ancient book is playing Simon says.
Ridicule is not hate. It's more akin to high humor, but tinged with exasperation.
Lies of any sort* tend to attract disgust, which is more akin to hate. Just thought I'd let you know, in case you wanted to improve your social standing.
*like, the bible is perfectly historically accurate .
Many things are wrong in the Bible.
Here is one you may find amusing:
Mark 3:25-26:
Jesus quotes the book of Samuel 1:21, the story of David talking to Abiathar
However,
Smauel 1:21 says that David was talking to
Ahimelech.
These are two different people in history.
Something is wrong. They can't both be right.
Was Jesus wrong?
Was Mark wrong?
Was Samuel Wrong?
Is the Bible Wrong? Something is wrong.
Four-legged grasshoppers, cud-chewing rabbits, bats as birds, the universe being filled with water, etc...
The list of biblical contradictions is long and well documented. The fact that John describes Jesus as dying before the Passover sedar, while the other gospels describe him as dying after the sedar is probably my favorite. Why don't you review the list and pick yours?
As for hating you, I for one do not hate anyone for being Christian, or of any other faith. That's an absurd reason to hate. However, trying to replace my childrens scientific education with mythology, promoting discrimination against gay people and misrepresenting the founding fathers as modern day fundamentalists are all, I believe, legitimate reasons for me to get angry. And it seems, the people who do this most (thus provoking me to anger) almost always describe themselves as Christians.
Hope that clears things up for you.

You're only right, it is a masterstroke for its time but I'm sure there's Precursors for it. Any long term building religion or belief would not only find those that aren't easily swayed but also those they would never sway, partly because many have commited to other conflicting bullshit already.
So even earlier religions carry this "there will be unbelievers" scenario, as they've met them as they try to spread the new thing and would incorporate that as prophecy. What's really lame is how Christians fall for this claim, some to the point of claiming disbelief is evidence of it's truth. Now that's not just bullshit, that's head-shakingly astounding bullshit which only takes us all back to Leprecauns and fairies or ANY bullshit ever imagined.
Talking animals ? Say... as in a snake, and a donkey? Don't tell me, ChristainFishy...:
The snake had the voice of Sterling Holloway, and the donkey sounded exactly like Eddie Murphy, amirite?!
Yeah. And that burning bush ; it was voiced by George Dumbya, amirite II?!
'Hated'? No. Pointed and Laughed at... well, let's just say that if you lot just kept yourselves - and your 'belie fs' - to yourselves, then FSTDT wouldn't exist.
After all, just find for me just one quote in our archives by a Quaker, Amish/Mennonite, or Unitarian Universalist, then ask yourself why you won't find any here. Isn't that a fact , and Facts destroy 'Truth', do they not?
Pi is 3.
Bats are birds.
There's 2 things.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
