Just to clarify.. I don't think your faith has made YOU more evil. I believe some very atrocious things have been done in the name of religous faith
I appreciate that (and it means more than you know actually).
I also agree with you completely that many, many folks claiming to represent Christ have done some terrible, terrible things in his name.
The early church of Rome and the papacy itself became highly corrupt and both influenced and controlled by governing authorities in Rome. Over time conditions slowly spiraled out of control in some instances.
Hordes of degenerate folks were assembled to protect "the church" and in doing so committed all kinds of horrendous acts that they were never actually called to committ (but who's gonna stop a horde). Church leaders and their followers therein also became corrupt by power and influence. Many, many, many people that were directly associated with "the church" and those indirectly affiliated with (or hired by) "the church" did horrible things in the "name of God".
None of it represented Jesus Christ and none of it was guided by the Holy Spirit.....these were all definite choices of men and women that either lost their way or never had "a way" to begin with.
I excuse none of it and make no apologetic pleas to defend it.....it was flat out wrong and anti-Christ. What's worse is some of it still exists today. If I had my way I'd shut "churches" like Westboro Baptist Church down. Further the priesthood and papacy of the Catholic church should be required to have supervised visitations with children for a long time to come. I know that one bad apple doesn't spoil the bunch, but one bad apple out of that bunch can spoil a lot of children (the most precious in Christ's kingdom).
