If people condem my religiosity and spirituality and claim to be superior to me in that regard, by definition that is hateful behaviour. The only way that I can go to so called Heaven according to the Fundies is to become a Born again Fundamentalist Christian. This thinking certainly does not come across as tolerant. Anyone can see that. But it is consistent with everything else that I have seen Ireland doing like publically stating that he is only going to hire Christ Church Christians to work in his Gigacampus.
Given those two things, his religious superiority complex coupled with his employment policy, I would say that it is a pretty hateful organization. If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck, it is a duck.

Two men are looking up at the sky and suddenly a bird flies into view, and one man says: "Look, there's an owl"
The other man says "That's not an owl, it's obviously a hawk"
The two men for that moment clearly disagree. Can it then logically be concluded that they hate each other?
Certainly not.
You and the Fundamentalist Christian disagree on who Jesus Christ is.
Can it then logically be concluded that the Christian hates you?
You do not explain your statements, so why should mr. maier explain his? It is so obvious who you represent it sickens me and others in town too. You are hurting your cause and not helping it by your instigation techniques. We are not falling for them.

Seems like the news generated by this board hasn't hurt anyone but our towns reputation.
Well, Mr. Maiers, you've let this one fade away, haven't you? Let's just leave it at this; you're statement equating hate with disagreement is based on nothing. As you've offered nothing logical to back it up, it's pretty obvious that your deduction is a complete fantasy that exists in your mind alone. I think I am beginning to see the pattern here.
