With all due respect, I think the Bible and everything surrounding it is a sham created to control the weak-minded, with the false illusion that someday when they die they will be rewarded. The most toxic, hypocritical, and despicable people I have ever met are faithful and indoctrinated with this.
The Vatican, the church is synonymous with the mafia, corruption, pedophilia, and all sorts of evil things.
They are among the wealthiest on the planet, and they only use their wealth to maintain their criminal organization; they do not use it to help the gullible faithful who follow them.
You might be right.
While I would never want to force something down anyones throat, I have a serious question: Have you ever read the Bible?
I'm asking because, although I may agree that many religions are corrupt, there have been certain truths written down that transcend religious experience. If you haven't read any of it, then I would urge you to suspend your disbelief and give it a try. The gospels are a great starting point. Read it as a story at least, and contemplate how they each differ in their descriptions of arguably the most influential person to ever walk the earth.
