Why Do I hate creationists (theists in general)

[Neo-Scholastic]

I found it quite simple to understand: Take a beam of white light...pass it through a prism ...and you get the same colors...in the same order and proportion, each time...Now where in the rainbow is the original white light?...Morality is inherent in "one of the colors".

I could use the same analogy to support the notion of morality reflecting a universal human nature. Take human nature, pass it through a cultural prism and out come various ethical traditions. The point here is not that various moral traditions reflect a universal source. On that we both agree. Rather, I am saying that different religions base their morality on apparently an similar foundation, when if fact they are conceptually very different.

For example, it is my understanding is that the ethical theory of Islam is basically divine command. In contrast to this, the Church of Rome relies on virtue ethics. Now on first blush it may seem that both ground their moral teachings on the same God, but that simply is not true. Virtue ethics depends upon more perfectly manifesting an essential human nature subsequent to a rational Divine Truth. The Islam ethical theory reflects belief in a God that transcends reason and thus the commands supposedly given by special revelation are considered impervious to reason. These are polar opposite notions about God's nature.

It's very politically correct to see a common core to all religions traditions , but that's just wishful bumper-sticker "coexist" theology. I'm all for finding similarities where they actually exist, but it's not in anyway helpful to gloss over essential differences.
