Words you should consider deeply, fishy.

Uh, hi. Fun fact: it's very hard to hate something we don't believe in. We might, however, hate what your religion does to you, which is, as you've so adequately demonstrated, made you okay with believing that awful things will happen to people who don't believe exactly as you do. I certainly hate that.

I wish you'd cut it out.

Did I not say "in your various ways"? No, you don't think our God exists. However, you will openly state that many things we stand for is evil (above example). I've already stated many times that my God does not put people in hell, but that seems to be ignored everywhere. If you were to know our God exists, you still wouldn't believe. This is why I mourn.
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

Nonsense. I would believe he exists: I wouldn't worship him, though.
Just as I wouldn't become a Muslim if I knew that Mo/Allah were real. I think it's a disgusting religion and I want no part of it.

Being real is only half of the problem.

That is what believe means in a Christian context.
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

Do you have two meanings to every word?

What if research revealed to you that hell wasn't really in the Bible? Would you still mourn or would you be indifferent or happy?
