I see no value in faith. I certainly wouldn't worship a god as described by those religions, even if it did exist. I am not a fan of dogma wrapped in mythology, don't care for the oppression of women or minority groups, not much impressed with slavery as a social institution, and an convinced that education and knowledge are vastly more important than ideology and belief. More to the point, I see the demanding of, and the offering of, worship, as an immoral and degrading act. No creature that demands to be loved at the threat of eternal damnation is a creature who deserves to be loved. The Jews consider me second class at best. Most Muslim governments would have me executed and we all live under the (admittedly tiny) threat of being murdered by a Muslim extremist pretty much anywhere at any time. In the meanwhile he Christians here in America are convinced they have the right to dictate my life and then watch me burn in hell.
The religions of the god of Abraham pretty much hate me. Why be surprised if I hate them back?
