I already said I should have used Mormonism instead of Mormon in that post.
However, it is not unusual to see hatred of individuals arise from hatred of their lifestyle or belief.
It happens.
Sorry, I missed the adjustment. Duly noted.
As for hatred of beliefs bleeding over to hatred of persons, perhaps. But I actually think it is fairly rare. I’d like to see a way for either of us to prove the assertion one way or the other. Anecdotally, of the theologically orthodox Christians I know, not one of them would fall into that confusion. I do know my non-Christian relatives routinely bash me for rejecting homosexuality, global warming, abortion rights, any number of other orthodoxies of the left. It can be hurtful to know in your own heart that you really do care about someone, but they’ve locked themselves away in a place you can’t reach through a false sense of persecution created by third parties. It can make for some pretty awkward family gatherings.
Prove it.
First hatred against anyone.
Second hatred against mormons.
HMMmmm...
Some on FR appear to disagree with MY 'lifestyle'; posting the way I do on FR.
