I'd figure you need to get out more and meet some christians. 
I'd also figure christians are people too, we have all the emotions God created us with, many christians are sick of having the lies of the world and the genuine hatred that comes with it shoved at us and being told we better accept it or WE'RE called hateful, racist, homophobic, and a whole lot more, and sometimes what might be righteous indignation and anger is misconstrued and falsely called hatred.
I'd also figure many christians are at different stages of growth, many are hurting from one reason or another, and that can manifest in different ways sometimes and seem like hatred.
And perhaps many are not christians at all.
And christians aren't perfect, practically speaking. Christians are forgiven.
The world should know us by the love we have for one another, and we're called to let brotherly love continue. Not always easy, and impossible without the love and grace of God.
But by the grace of God we are what we are, and I know in my own life, I could do much better. I thank Him for His mercy and patience, I'm a work in progress. Not making excuses, though. Hopefully I'm not as bad as I used to be, but I have a long way to go. IT is finished, but He's not finished with us.

I've been a member of my church for about 11 years and I have noticed that over the years our congregation has been on a steady decline. I believe this is in part due to the way people treat each other. One of my very dear friend who is deceased now left our church and never came back because someone said something rude to her about the way her children were dressed. Don't let me be Pastor because I will openly confront those who do these things

No, I never said anything about where he said he has Aspergers. I said he's not "suffering" from it. It is simply who he is. Kind of like thinking I "suffer" from cockeyed. My eyes are cockeyed, but it's not a disease or illness either. It is simply a part of who I am. It frustrates other people, (only because no one knows who I'm looking at but me lol), but I'm not suffering. I usually forget I am. No suffering involved.
He said what he's thinking. He never asked for anyone to agree or disagree with him. He was, and still is, simply saying what he thinks. Would this much anger be involved if he said he doesn't like people who love golf? Would you feel compelled to change his mind? Would you think it wasn't biblical? It's what he thinks of some of us, not what he thinks we should do about it.
I am aware of what I'm writing. I have been consistent. I even disagree with him at points, but trying to force him to change his opinions is like trying to force a conservative into becoming a liberal. It's just not doable. Nor is it necessary. Nor is it worth getting bent out of shape about the person thinking differently.

I don't think Monty Python or the Three Stooges are funny, but I'm not going to insult anyone for thinking they are.
There's the difference. You seem to think everyone must think like you. No need to understand -- just comply. (And that wasn't humor.)
