Actually now that you mention it, the only rational way to test Christianity is to diligently test what Jesus actually said and promised, and see if it does what he says it will. E.g he promised "rivers of living water flowing out of his innermost being" to believers. Also, rationally speaking, you would have to dump both your "I was raised Christian" and any simple minded anti-Christian philosophies at least temporarily.

And then, to claim a fully rational investigation, you would have to live by his standard in the sermon on the Mount to know if your life and those around you changed for the better. Correct?

Then, for thousands of years and up to today people have misinterpreted, misread, and misimplemented the word of Christ so badly that very few have ever followed the word of God?

According to me and that dummy G.K Chesterton, and then James Madison (who said "the world lays in darkness for the wont of it)" yes, exactly. OK now I see the problem you are having. Again, lets talk specific statements in the sermon on the Mount by Jesus and then you tell me how many Christians follow it. OK? Then we'll move on to what he said to do with heretics, and you tell me when most Chrsitians figured that out.

BTW I thought atheists were big on saying Christians don't practice what they preach. But you are saying they do now?
