Do people hate the actual belief in God, or just the religious organizations?

[Chad32]

God is a figment of someone's imagination but his supposed followers have done a shitload of damage.

well, doesnt sound like you hate the belief in god, just the wrongdoing of people who do.

im seeing now that my question is stupid, people wouldnt hate figments of imagination, unless their figment is telling them to kill people.

does this mean man is inherently bad? 
or that man is easily corrupt?
and what corrupts man? 
is it god or the things written about him?
or is it the people who wrote it were bad and trying to control?
or just a product of our flawed history overstaying its welcome?
all of the above?

I don't think people are inherently bad, but we are easily corrupted. There are few people who, given too much power without enough checks and balances, won't become corrupt. Yet somehow we expect an omnipotent god to be incorruptible, somehow. One way of keeping power is claiming that you speak for a being that isn't as easy to get rid of as you are. If your average guy rapes a child, they're up the creek without a paddle. When a "holy" man does it, he's shuttled off to a different location at best. At worst the child gets blamed for it.
