Tbh, your little campaign reads a lot like the bullshit "soft" conversion tactics that I've read about before:
When using this tactic, the apologist is instructed to avoid negative associations and making overt attempts at conversion, and simply focus on the beauty of religion in order to foster non-believers' sense of "transcendence".
What you're attempting to do here on AF is nothing new, dude.
If you can point to anything I've said that is incorrect, I'll be happy to discuss it.
What you're doing here is mind-reading, fantasizing that I have goals that I don't really have.

Edited to add:
You've brought to mind something I hadn't thought about in a LONG TIME.
When I was in about 6th grade, the local preacher's kid wanted to make me a Christian. One of his arguments was that when I sit quietly, if I look inward, I will feel the presence of God. So I tried this, and I didn't feel the presence of God. Then when I reported back to him, he said that no, in fact I really did feel it, but I refused to admit it. He said I must be lying.
But it wasn't an effective tactic for him to use, because I know my mind better than he did.
Cool story.
I guess that means you kind of know how folks here feel being subjected to your tactic of dismissing all that is wretched, immoral, and truly reprehensible about the Bible and commanding atheists to just focus on the aesthetics then, huh? And why you give off such strong apologist douchebag vibes.
