Hatred in the face of perfect love

It's a really ponderous thing that someone can actually hate God.  It makes no sense, from many different perspectives.  For one, God is love.  Everything he does is good and for our benefit.  Even when we don't understand or see the immediate fruits.  Two, God is all powerful.  How can it make any sense, whatsoever, to hate someone who is in absolute control? 
I suppose it could be argued that a particular person doesn't hate God specifically because they don't even believe in God, they simply manifest a hatred toward organized religion, usually in the form of Roman Catholicism.
But even this fails a logic test.  It is one thing to hate the way a professed follower of a particular religion unfaithfully practices that religion as opposed to hating the God of the religion itself.
Or possibly one hates the concept of organized religion in general and the requirements it places upon them.  This is probably more often the case, as rebellion is a common seed in man.  But if this is the case, at least be honest about it. 
But sadly, more often than not, many of the criticisms raised against Roman Catholicism are somewhat legitimate, at least the abuses therein that are so common.
So what do with this realization?  There are two ways to address this.  From a negative perspective, we must live in a way that gives no one any grounds for despising the faith.  From a positive perspective, we must know and love out our faith in a way that we can display the love of God.  In doing so, we will draw men, even those who hate and despise.
