Hate what they do, but please don't let your soul succumb to hatred. Then they truly will have won! Ours is not a religion of hate, but of love and forgiveness. They can kill our bodies, but our souls- not if we remember Jesus' Words and Example, even as He was being tortured and crucified.
If and when that time comes, may God give us all strength, and the grace to quote St. Stephen: God, please, hold not this sin against them! And "them" included Saul of Tarsus- later St. Paul! From every evil God allows, there comes a greater good! Peace be with you!
God bless you!
