Uh, just what do you think they're doing here, aside from telling everyone else (who is not a True Christian™) that they're wrong?

...JESUS calls us to "Love others as I have loved you" John 13:34. He didnt say "love only believers" but a vague "others"

Uh, yes, He did. Let's look at the COMPLETE VERSE:
John 13:34 "A new commandment I give unto you, That
ye love one another; as I have loved
you, that
ye also love one another."
Does that say "everyone" or "one another"? Keep in mind that in this entire passage, He is addressing His disciples (a closed group).
And to put this to bed, here's the very next verse:
John 13:35 "By this shall all men know that
ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."
Unless you're claiming that there are now ~7.5 billion disciples?
Read the Bible, the WHOLE thing, not just bits and pieces, k?
