There are so many problems with Christianity, I hardly know where to start. If I had to do a quick summary of just a couple of the larger problems, it'd be the following:
Frankenstein Theologies: One thing that has been growing in annoyance for me is the rather haphazard nature with which Christian theologies are constructed. For Christian apologists, it seems that, for them, any stick to beat back atheism and skepticism are good enough. And this causes them to take on all sorts of philosophical positions with little thought as to how they fit together, if at all. An example of this is in my thread in the philosophy section titled "Potential Christian-Platonist Contradiction". Until Genkaus pointed this out, I didn't realize how prevalent it was. But as I look more, it's everywhere.
Evidential Problem of Evil: I'm not sure whether there's exactly a logical contradiction between "God exists and is all-good" and "evil exists". But regardless, it would seem to be the case that the greater amount of suffering that exists makes the existence of a God using that suffering for a higher purpose more and more unlikely.
There are a lot more, but I figure those are big enough problems in themselves.
