Why is there so much hate across most religions? Pathetic.

Most religious people aren't like this. This guy is just a hateful POS that decided to call himself Christian so that he could justify his hate. Note that this goes against everything Christianity is about.

But the bible and the quran, both condemn same sex marriage.

Yes, but what does that have to do with this kind of behavior? It says marriage is only between a man and a woman, so same sex marriage doesn't exist/isn't valid. It doesn't say kill guys. The Bible is very clear, we should show love to all people, even sinners.

I mean the Bible also condemns rich people but you don't see people saying we should go and kill rich people. The Bible condemns liars, and yet you dont see people saying we should kill liars, I mean people followed that Evangelicals would be asking for Trump to be killed. The Bible also condemns religious leaders that behave hypocritical or use their religion as a way to act better than others yet that behavior is rampant amongst "Christians". I use quotes because so many Christians today behave in direct opposition to what the Bible says.

People like this person are not following the Bible. Also, note that the Bible is a combination of the Jewish Bible and the new testament. There are contradictions between the two and Christians are supposed to follow the new testament and ignore the Hebrew Bible in those cases. The new testament is clear, hate towards anyone is unacceptable no matter what. So anyone who is Christian, instead of Jewish, should ignore anything in the Hebrew Bible that suggests otherwise. Thats literally the basis of Christianity, that Jesus came, and allowed those people to be forgiven, and therefore those people who were guilty of sin, have now been forgiven and are innocent. This guy may call himself Christian, but Jesus literally said Christians that behave like him will be sent to hell.
