Hatred of anyone who is not just like them.

It is a simplistic way of black and white thinking that has obvious appeal to stupid people because it requires very little or no thinking.

I don't think that fundamentalist christians hate others, they just feel that others are lost. The way to get along is not to say that others beliefs are correct, but to accept them as fellow humans and respect them even though you disagree.

I agree with what you're saying, but it's not just Christians I'm talking about.

I mean fundamentalists of any description, even fanatical football fans.

Though religion( and I'm looking at you, Islam) seems to turn the hatred to 120%
