Generally speaking, I don't hate religion. While I consider myself an atheist now, I don't believe that God can be proven to exist, just as I believe that he cannot be disproven. (My atheism rests in probabilities.) The same goes for ghosts and other supernatural entities. I would say I am a fairly tolerant person who is open-minded about a lot of religious beliefs, while holding my own at the same time.
However, I do really dislike fundamentalism. In my personal opinion, I think completely disregarding science and evolution is rather... primitive. So no, I don't hate religion as a whole; it's just the fundamentalism and extremism within certain religions that I have a major problem with.
