Yeah, its not the same. Somthing might have caused you to hate religion however this alos impacted you on hating God. Who is God - the goodness within.
Your promblem is with religion not God.

How do you know what my problem is? You've never met me.
You're wrong by the way. My atheism has nothing to do with hate. Do you have any more sweeping statements for us?
I don't believe you. Get over it.
Or maybe everyone here is way more educated than you about those terms.

Or the goodness within could be biological instincts evolved to promote pack harmony. There's far more evidence for that than some nebulous concept of God being goodness within that cannot be defined. You can test for the former, you can't test for the latter. The former has explanatory power and is useful, the latter doesn't and isn't. 
Do you think you are telling us something new?
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Organized religion is a whole another problem, but get this - if stupid people didn't believe in gods and other such magical nonsense, there would be no religions.

I'm not so limited – I have problems with religion AND God.

Lol you guys are like moths to a flame....
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I don't know what a god is, everyone has a different idea and few ever define it in a coherent way. I don't hate [whatever it is]. I don't care about it. It's of no relevance, whether it exists or not. Okay, so you define God as "the goodness within". So God is just a part of people who believe in God. I agree. That's what it is. Why would I hate the goodness within people? That makes no sense. Feel free to send me a private message.

This sounds like a Bait & Switch.
"You don't want to hate do you?" "Well of course not, I want to be good!" "Then be good with god, because good is god within us" or some shit.
