Jesus orders you to hate your family because if you don't you can't be his disciple.

Read the bible and understand it before saying that God says people should be put to death. Because God would certainly never do this.

Orly? God clearly orders the death of adulterers.
As for sexism in the bible, its also clearly there.

Wives are property. The husband owns her according to the bible.

As I hope you can see, the bible is clearly sexist.
God is the most horrible, vile, and repugnant character in any work of fiction. I can not concieve of how anyone can possibly be worse, and if you believe that something so wretched is so great you are a fool. Christianity, and its followers, are a threat to modern society and deserve no respect imo.
