"How is debate on the unknown hate-filled?"

It's not when it is legitimate debate.

But so often these "debates" are just name-calling.

There are dishonest arguments, misquotes, and intentional floating of know-bogus information (e.g., the recurring misuse of the laws of thermodynamics); or intentionally warping the theory of evolution to say it addresses matters that it does not (e.g., where the primordial soup comes from --- evolution deals with what already exists --- not ultimate creation --- and never has touched on that issue).

Indeed, supposed fellow "Chrisitans" have accused me of:

1. Being in favor of birth defects.
2. Hating Jesus/God whatnot
3. Being in favor of Nazi atrocities
4. Supporting Nazi ideas

and that is just what I recall sitting here.

That is not "debate" It is certainly not "speaking truth in love." It is mere hate.
