This is a discussion forum. All are entitled to express their opinions. If there were no theists or deists here, there would never be mention of a god. As it is however, there are theists and deists here and therefore, discussions will abound about god. For sake of argument we sometimes treat this non-existent entity as though it were real. Without this treatment, the discussions would simply all end in;
"There is no god. End of argument. Get over it."
Sometimes, in the heat of the discussion, emotions come into play and your god is really a fucking tyrannical misanthrope, so treating it as an existent deity does bring out the "We hate your god" syndrome.
When reading a well written book or a well done movie, it is easy to get emotional and develop an extreme dislike for some of the characters and relish in their demise, but once the movie is over or the book is read, the characters no longer exist and the 'hate' is gone. When we leave the forum, we do not go on a "We hate god" rampage, but rather we forget it until next time.
So while we are here discussing your non-existent deity, you can rest assured that we do have a 'non-existent' dislike for your fucking tyrannical misanthrope.

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.
