Just like the people here who hate God play a role. their's is to become the obstacles that test and try the faith full they become the storms of life that help proof and sharpen the faith of those who believe.

I can't hate something that does not really exist. I can deny the belief that a god is real.
If I/we are playing a role and you believe your second sentence to be correct then you should be grateful that I/we exist and you should stop trying to convert us or tell us that we are wrong. You have now made your presence/posts here a fallacy.
that's a lie.
You can hate something that does not exist.
about 1/2 the country hates trump for being a totalitarian dictator who's racist and sexist policies are bring the country to it's knees...
Now while yes trump is a person (but that is not what is hated) his title as a dictator makes people hate him. when in truth Trump does not exist as a dictator as he is a duly elected president who will either go one for another 4 years at the end of his term or relinquish power at the end of his term depending on how the election goes. Yet trump is so hated for being something he is not, there are murmurings of civil war if he is reelected.
Now i know you want to hide behind logical fallacy here, but in truth the same thing was said about lincoln when the democrats succeeded from the union after his election. again for the same sort of reason. in that lincoln was built up to be a monster or represent a whole party of right crushing monsters and the country divided and fought a civil war because people hated something that did not exist.
That said you may feel you are neutral here, but those who share your religious title are not. just open you eyes to some of what has been said about God and his followers.
