But I mean that ones who take it seriously. So many of them are full of hatred or ascribe this emotion to their god. God hates sin, homosexuals or anything or anyone not like them. Why is this?
We're all familiar with the concept of a hateful Muslim in the same way, and although evangelical Xtians don't threaten to cut heads off unbelievers, it's not much better as a woman when you hear how they want to remove your bodily autonomy. Or the insidious conditioning of children where they instil a fear of hell into them.
Yet each one of these hateful Xtians will claim that their religion and their god is one of love. The double speak is of 1984-esque proportions.
The only thing I can see that is common to many of the hateful Xtians is lack of empathy.
To be fair to most Christians it only seems to be the American ones who are hateful. They are trying to spread the toxic brand world wide, but mostly over in the UK at least, people just look at that sort with pity.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
