Mostly the one's here in the United States. Take a look at that recent Target boycott. I have no issue with expressing your opinion, but that doesn't take away my right to call someone a bigot for it. I honestly think Christians here in the United States are some of the biggest ass holes on the planet. I know several who seem to believe they have some kind of special claim and they should get special privileges. I'm honestly growing fuck and sick of this.

Have a hatred for Christians because what they do on account of Christianity makes about as much sense as having a hatred of those born with microcephaly because of the zika virus.

Only some of them, and of those most only can theoretically.

Yeah, I can blame you.

Dislike individuals because of their actions, but to dislike an entire group of people because of the actions of some makes you no better than those Christians who do the same.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I don't blame you for hating that particular behavior but you should realize it's a minority of Christians that behave that way.

Most of you all know me as quite the intolerable anti-theist.

However, I have been working with this one woman who is religious.

Never once does she mention anything religious at work and she even curses more than I do.

I suppose, looking back on past behavior, I have been a bit too harsh on Christians.
