seems pretty obvious that God isn't all that fond of those who don't believe in His only begotten Son
Jesus taught us to love everyone, especially those who hate and despise us.
that's different

Jesus taught us to love everyone, especially those who hate and despise us.

The Most High judges no humans. He has deferred judgment to the Son.
What, haven't you read John 3:18-19?
“He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already
Condemned to what?
Condemned by whom?
