No, it starts with judeo-christianity being a fundamentally bigoted and ethnocentric religion. A fanciful tale of a vengeful god that missed his ethics course. Christian people, like all people, run the full spectrum of behaviour. Saints to sinners. It's not you, it's your religion, lol. Injustice would be one word. Pervasive another. I could think of plenty of words. In fact the only way one can escape these little wonderings is by reference to his "mysterious ways". See, as an outsider I'm on the fence about your god. The reformed folks have a strong argument for a douchebag god. He's not worthy of worship real or made up. On the other hand, there are the fluffy types who propose a sort of bumbling, mildly inept god. It's human, helps you to feel close, but again, not worth worship. Then, as you've mentioned, there are these things the religious do, and say.....
It's a giant shit sandwich, can you blame me for not wanting a bite?
