But the reason "atheist" do not accept this title is because they will have to acknoweledge that they do believe in God. (You have to believe in something to hate it.) Few if any have the marbles to own up to their hate. (probably because deep down they do not have complete faith in their "atheism.")
You have to believe in something to hate it? Someone has clearly never explored the concept of a "villain" in fiction. Their entire reason for existing is to generate misgivings and serve as a foil for the hero.
In any case - I don't hate you Drich, I just don't think you're a decent person, that's all. Now sure, sure, some of the positions you hold disgust me..but you're a human being and I'm well aware that we all have our ticks, so I see little reason to hate you on the count of being disgusted by you. You cannot accept that what you find to be just I find to be sadistic and ignorant, what you call love I call sickness -and so rather than simply accept this you internalize my criticisms of your position and feel compelled to maintain that I hate god, god simply being a projection of yourself.
