I frankly don't care. Christianity is king among thieves and grifters because their income is 100% tax sheltered. When Muslims, Sikhs, Buddhists or Hindus do as much harm to me and those I love as Christianity does, I'll start complaining about them. As it stands, Christianity is the largest source of corruption and abuse visible to me from my study and lived experience. To add: Its common consensus that corporations act in anti-social ways. Christianity requires the same regard because its behaviors are identical to that of corporations.
You can choose to blind yourself, but don't except anyone to praise you for it.
