Today? MAybe not so glaring, but still exists. Sounds to me like you're a well rounded individual that realizes that religion - like beauty- is in the eye of the beholder. And that you don't need to take the bible literally.
Unfortunately, in many places around the world, religion oppresses the heck out of people. Christianity, islam... They're all guilty.
Than you must be all for the Iraq war since the US liberated the Iraqi people from their oppressors...yet they still have their religion
