They've pretty much put out there that all atheists deserve to die, and not because of what we DO, which is the line I drew, but just because of what we BELIEVE (or rather, what we don't).
1. That movie did not say atheists deserve to die. They said other things I don't agree with and had a lot of ridiculous stereotypes, but they didnt say nor implied that atheists deserve death.
2. Don't generalize all of us based on the impression you got from a movie. My husband and I both watched that movie and thought it was awful and embarrassing. I know of many other Christians who felt the same way. And if you say you want theists to die and if you make generalizations about us, you're really no different from the types of people you claim to hate.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
