Some Christians, Muslims, Jews, or people other monotheistic faiths, even some Athiests, beleive that [b]To Love God is to Hate Satan...Or to Hate Sin...
Or to Hate Other Gods
Or to Hate anything and anyone that does not submit to, or is consistant with this God.
If God Is Love, then how can he/she/it hate anything ?
If you Love God with a pure heart, then how can you hate anything ?
Can you be filled with both Love and Hate at the same time ? If you are filled with Hatred, are you a Loving person ?
If you are a Loving Person, can you possess Hatred of any kind ?

The Bible tells us to Hate Satan. To reject him and not trust his lies. Yet, beleivers claim that God indeed loves Satan. If God Loves Satan, then is Satan truly evil personified ?
How can God love Satan, but hate Sin, if Sin is Evil, and Satan is the personification of Evil ?
The Bible also tells us the world is wicked...to hate this world, and to strive for the higher world, Heaven.
If Earth is so evil, then we can't love it, can we ?
But if we don't love Earth, then we shouldn't take care of it. If this world is truly Satan's world, then why bother treating it with any respect ? We should just trash it.

I just don't understand how one can love God and then have to hate something or someone else as a part of that Love.
Does the Bible truly support the act of Loving God while Hating Satan, "false idols", sin, the world, etc. ?
If not, then why do many Christians and other religious or non religious people beleive this ? [/B]
Only real Christians hate everything other than god.
Just like they think that Harry Potter is making Kids delve into Black occult magic.
