Luke 16: 13 “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

Hyperbolic language, ever heard of it? Jesus was simply talking about the order of magnitude of difference between loving Him and loving oneself/one's family that could become necessary if one decided to become His disciple. And considering how many of His disciples did get killed for being Christians, He was really doing people a favour by warning them so strongly.

But if you want to keep believing that the same man who kept teaching about loving everyone, and who gave His life because He loved us, also taught about hating oneself and hating one's family, all because of one hyperbolic verse that makes sense when taken in context, be my guest.

I think I'll go on believing he's a fictional character written by many different people, and it made his character inconsistent.

It's a very convenient arguing tactic to say that the text someone else points out is hyperbole, but yours is legit. How can I tell when something is hyperbole and not literal, apart from when it doesn't fit your narrative? Is it when it's not supported elsewhere? How about the passages where Jesus refuses to even see his mother and brothers? Matthew 12:46-50 and Luke 8:19-21.
