I have absolutely no belief in your god, I can't hate what isn't real.
re my high horse- that's all right, i'll stay up here thank you.
re hatred-you can and obviously do hate our faith. i submit that hatred and true happiness are not compatible in the same heart.
this thread is an objective example of why polite company stay away from these topics. additionally it is further proof that arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. so i'm out. i'll leave you all to your accidental, meaningless lives. good luck.

Contrary to what your beliefs have convinced you of, I cannot experience your god...I cannot hate what has zero impact on my life. Religion impacts my life, god does not.
i'll leave you all to your accidental, meaningless lives. good luck.
My beliefs with regards to theism does not make my life any less meaningful than yours, it is of your opinion that it does but fortunately your opinion has zero impact on my life. I love my life and many aspects of it have significant meaning to me, feel free to downplay the now and look with yearning to the future. When your time is up, you'd better not regret the choices you made...I certainly won't have to.
As to accidental, congrats at highlighting your oh-so-typical theistic thought process. "they can't explain it, therefore they are wrong". If you'd like I can create a cult that has it's stories as well, will that satisfy your desires to know the whole story of something instead of going out to search for the truth? Cause what's the point of learning and advances our knowledge of the sciences when we can simply turn to an archaic text written by a bunch of primitive, barbaric sheep herders?

back on topic
“That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.”
“To terrify children with the image of hell, to consider women an inferior creation—is that good for the world?”
“About once or twice every month I engage in public debates with those whose pressing need it is to woo and to win the approval of supernatural beings. Very often, when I give my view that there is no supernatural dimension, and certainly not one that is only or especially available to the faithful, and that the natural world is wonderful enough—and even miraculous enough if you insist—I attract pitying looks and anxious questions. How, in that case, I am asked, do I find meaning and purpose in life? How does a mere and gross materialist, with no expectation of a life to come, decide what, if anything, is worth caring about?
Depending on my mood, I sometimes but not always refrain from pointing out what a breathtakingly insulting and patronizing question this is. (It is on a par with the equally subtle inquiry: Since you don't believe in our god, what stops you from stealing and lying and raping and killing to your heart's content?) Just as the answer to the latter question is: self-respect and the desire for the respect of others—while in the meantime it is precisely those who think they have divine permission who are truly capable of any atrocity—so the answer to the first question falls into two parts. A life that partakes even a little of friendship, love, irony, humor, parenthood, literature, and music, and the chance to take part in battles for the liberation of others cannot be called 'meaningless' except if the person living it is also an existentialist and elects to call it so. It could be that all existence is a pointless joke, but it is not in fact possible to live one's everyday life as if this were so. Whereas if one sought to define meaninglessness and futility, the idea that a human life should be expended in the guilty, fearful, self-obsessed propitiation of supernatural nonentities… but there, there. Enough.”
“Violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism and tribalism and bigotry, invested in ignorance and hostile to free inquiry, contemptuous of women and coercive toward children: organized religion ought to have a great deal on its conscience.”
“What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof.”
“Everything about Christianity is contained in the pathetic image of 'the flock.”
-Christopher Hitchens
