All depends on what supreme being belief system one subscribes too doesn't it? If your religion says that the earth is the floor of the universe, and the sky is a celing held up by pillars at the edge of the earth and the moon is the source of light at night then simply your religion is wrong and dismisses facts now known.

The critical question must be not weather or not god exists but do you have proof or are you endeavoring to get proof? The majority of believers I've encountered simply point to a book and say "here is the proof", or say "Yea I saw him! ... but no one else did". While science gives us something to look at and figure the origin of the universe and life that does not rely on some old book or someones word on it but a repeatable, verifiable experiment. Until someone can locate, categorize and analyze it I say it exits purely in the realm of the theoretical.

As for atheists hating believers I can only comment as to my self on that account in that I have never hated someone for what I feel is a misguided belief. Only in their actions would I find disdain.
