    Are there any non Abrahamic (Xtian/Judaism/Islam) religions that teach hate and...

    ...bigotry like they do? I'm curious if there are any religions that aren't Abhrahamic that teach bigotry like the Abrahamics do? Abrahamic= Christianity, Judaism, Islam

    All three stem form the same place/religion, and all three are taught to hate gays/lesbians and to stop gays/lesbians from attaining equal rights. Is this the same with religions other than them?
    Im clarifying here, the Torah/Old Testament does teach intolerance of gays. The Jews of Israel have, however, been more progressive than most of the world when it comes to equal rights for gays... so, yeah, I guess they're excluded.

    Don't be stupid christians. How are you going to lie with a straight face, and say you don't believe in equal rights or treating gays as humans, but you don't hate? Give me a break... Proposition 8=hate

    Christian and Jewish scriptures don't teach hate or bigotry. We are most certainly not taught to hate homosexuals. Christian scripture says that acting upon those urges is sinful, but it specifically says that we are not supposed to judge gay people.

    Their hatred and intolerance for gays and lesbians is only the tip of the iceberg .. try to keep in mind that they're ultimate desire is either total eradication or conversion and subjugation of everyone who believes differently or fails to follow the same rules that they do. ( ...and it's the Muslim who is the greatest threat of all.)

    Holy crap, eh?

    You should try reading a bit. Only some interpretations of only christianity are taught to hate gays/lesbians.

    I'm not sure about Judaism, but only homosexual actions are forbidden in Islam. One of the prophet Muhammad's closest companions openly wrote about how he was attracted to the young boys at the bath houses, and had to leave to not be aroused around them. Islam teaches that if you have gay emotions, there is nothing wrong with that. Only if you perform gay actions, God will punish you.

    Regardless, none of the 3 religions preach hate. go read a book before you post things full of ignorance.

    Aside from the short lived monotheistic religion created by Pharaoh Ikhnaton no. Polytheistic faiths tend to treat each others Gods and customs with respect.
    You are mistaken in saying that the Biblical sources teach hatred of gays, only the act is forbidden, not the desire, and then only for men, there is nothing forbidding or even addressing such actions by women. The hatred and bigotry are taught by the people in the Churches, not by the Bible itself, no matter how much they try to claim otherwise, you should realize that.
