I don't hate religion only because I do not want to spend any of my energy hating people with a weak mind.

Atheists can hate religion without hating the religious. In fact, in most cases, we pity those who are still confined within their mental shackles and having to live through the abusive relationship that defines theist belief systems. That is why we hate religion because we see what it does to people, it poisons them and warps their thinking. It is a virus of delusion that instinctively attempts to reject the antidote of reasoning and critical thinking because part of its symptomatic profile is to convince the sufferer that they couldn't possibly live without it.

Well this is actually an advanced view of the matter. This is what I expect from people who aren't from Bit-X and DaDice.
You've written this very nicely. It is making them reject reasoning and critical thinking.

Religions such as Christianity are absurd. This is an objective opinion. Just think about it. How would it be if you had never heard of any religion till you were grown up and actually though for yourself?
If we take Christianity for an example; you believe in an invisible man who allegedly lived over 2000 years ago. He was killed by religious zealost and then he magically raised from the dead just after three days. In addition to that, they believe in other invisible being such as angels and demons. Meanwhile, another invisible Spirit (the Holy Spirit) is constantly at work behind the scenes around the earth, keeping the whole thing straight and intervening whenever he can. The words 'whenever he can' have been specifically used because since he exists why should he save the little children from abuse and rape? Roll Eyes
