I understood (or at least semi-understood) the reason when he thought that the Catholic church had tortured and killed Belle, but now he knows that that's not true. Why does he still hate them? His hatred of the nuns stemmed from his hatred of their Enchanted Forest counterparts, the fairies. His hatred of the fairies came from Blue giving Baelfire the magic bean that took him to the Land Without Magic. However, in the end Rumple chose his powers over his child, so he had no one to blame but himself, but Rumple never takes responsibility for anything so he decided to blame Blue instead.
