You're taking seriously what you want to believe, but asserting that what you don't want to believe doesn't count. I don't care if you've changed your mind on every other issue you've ever discussed here, that doesn't make this particular argument any more honest.
I think you don't get it. Christianity does nothing bad. People do bad. If people follow christianity and do what it teaches they will do good. If people do bad things and try to use christianity to justify themselves, that's not christianity. You guys are saying christianity is a bad thing when it's not. You tell me christianity does this and that, and I think - "christianity doesn't do that!"

Good for you. But that's not true of everyone. There are people who do just as I said, and their motivation for changing is becoming a christian.
