Any characterizations I make on christianity comes from being raised in it, as well as what other christians have said.
You seem to paint with a broad brush and constantly avoid details of any kind. What specific doctrine have you "objectively studied" that you think that Christians have twisted meaning into?

Knock it off Steve, nobody here is singling you out. Nobody is painting a "broad brush".
THAT WAS THEN, THIS IS NOW, what part of that do you not understand? We say the same to Muslims and Jews and Hindus and Buddhists. HUMANS back then did NOT have the benefit of modern science. Humans back then were tribal and made bad claims based on the social norms of the societies they grew up in.
We reject your God claim for the same reason you reject the claims of the ancient Egyptians polytheistic gods. NOTHING MORE, again, THAT WAS THEN THIS IS NOW.
GROW UP, you wont get smoted by God or Thor or Yoda if you figure out you got it wrong.
