      What you’re describing sounds like you’re being super sensitive to the concept of Hell, and eternal damnation

      The concept of Hell is not hate directed at you, that’s just your brain not being able to handle nuance, abstract thought, the idea of faith or to be introspective enough to take up the mantle of trying to live as best as you can.

      Do you find the threat of prison for committing crimes as hate?

      The concept of sin revolves around the idea that it is impossible to live without sin, for all of us. You’re not at all special.

      This is the kind of self centered “me, me, me” mentality that pulls people to the left, I think. If you think the idea of heaven and hell is ‘hateful’ towards you specifically, then you’re just not grown up enough yet to be a fully functioning adult.

      As far as being Jewish and taking personal offense to the death Jesus …. Well, Jesus was a Jew. Jews don’t believe Jesus was the messiah. That’s fine, Christian’s don’t hate Jews. They share a book of the Bible

          That’s an issue with an individual, the entire of Christianity is not calling you a Jew-boy or wishing for you to burn in hell.

          Extrapolating that to an entire group of people is the self importance I’m talking about

          Liberals call me all kinds of names, and wish all kinds of violence on me. I’ve been called a ‘biological terrorist’ from mods on reddit for thinking abortion should have some common sense restrictions.

          Does that mean liberals are a hate group? That would be kind of stupid to say, don’t you think? From my anecdotal perspective and going by your thought process, I guess you’d need to agree with me that being liberal means you’re a part of a hate group.

          Can you understand why the way you use these words is wrong? And makes these important words meaningless?

                  The ‘hate’ (as you call it) is not the exact same words you experienced, it’s tailored to me personally.

                  But you’re missing the point here. If someone is racist to certain races, that would be hate. Is it all of a sudden not hate because it’s not the exact terms you heard directed at you? Give me a break, that’s ridiculous.

                  So if liberals are threatening me, or other people, or demeaning to conservatives or Christian’s, that makes them a hate group to you? Just as individual Christian’s telling you you’ll burn in hell makes Christianity a hate group?
