Never compromise! / Christian persecution!

[thesummerqueen]

It seems apparent to me that the political left deems everyone who disagrees with them as as hateful or prejudiced.

Extremists of any flavor can act this way. Has nothing to do with left or right. The problem in this country is that the screaming is dominated by right-wingers.

If I think that someone else is going to hell, and I'm trying to keep them from doing that, then that means that I hate that person. Sounds like pretty poor reasoning to me.

No, the problem is that your religion has no basis for its ideals except a bronze-age collection of stone-age influenced tales, most of which involve violence and hatred of the acutest kind. You're right - the fact that you wouldn't want a person to go to hell means you care, but the religion you base your evangelizing on DOESN'T.
