Sure you can. People can hate what they want to hate.

This is utterly meaningless. Think about it, good people (if you can be arsed).

What you can't do is scream and berate and taunt people about something constantly and consistently for years and credibly say that you DO NOT have strong feelings about it. You DonT can choose whatever you want to describe those feelings. pete has chosen "hate." since he has been more of a target of those feelings than me. I am going with his choice of words.

Well, I'll admit that anyone who cheerfully throws his lot in with nutty pete, and is happy to say so in public, certainly possesses big balls. Another thing: you're confusing hate with pity. We pity you and pete. We don't hate you. I don't hate God either. I pity him for having to put up with tossers like you 'n' pete for his spokesmen. You'd have thought that, in his omnipotence, he'd be able to shut you up. The fact that he doesn't could well be further evidence for his non-existence.

By the way, wacky Jacky-tar, have you ever noticed the rather embarrassed silence around you from your fellow Christians? Doesn't that tell you something? The clenching of their buttocks at your every post is almost palpable. Look around you, Wacko! :-)
