Why I am no longer a Christian

Top 5 reasons I am no longer a Christian are:

1. Personal Experience - What has befallen me and my family - most notably my daughter Cecilia - over the last two to three years does not match up, in any conceivable way, with the promises laid forth in the "Holy Bible."
2. Jesus Himself - This guy, if he was indeed God incarnate and living today, is the greatest underachiever of all time. "Ask for it in my name and it shall be given?" In contract-lingo, shall is a word that denotes 100%, no gray area, it shall be done - Jesus, if he does end up to be God, has about a billion lawsuits on his hands for violating this contract again and again when we all meet him in Heaven.
3. The Christian Church - Have you ever seen a more screwed-up and self-serving organization? They think today that they are so much more enlightened than the churches of the Dark Ages - sure, they don't burn people at the stake anymore, or go on Crusades, or persecute non-Christians, or torture people until they confess their Satan worshipping ways, or put down people who discover scientific truths that conflict with the "Holy Bible" - but they split the "Body if Christ" asunder if they don't agree on every small detail with countless denominations, they seek to bring people to Christ through the lies of the environmentalist movement, they spout the evil philosophy of socialism and communism from the pulpit under the authority of Jesus, or pick on gays and lesbians while ignoring child-molesters amongst them, blindly accept the "Word of God" when we learn so much more about science and God's Creation, go on "mission trips" that really are vacations to make them feel good about themselves (these poor people sure would rather have the money spent on airfare than have some people who've never used a hammer before build them an orphanage!), they donate their hard earned money to build buildings rivaling sports arenas, and all manner of facilities to entertain themselves. And I'm to believe that God is intimately involved in governing his Church? Please. It's insulting to God to believe so.
4. The "Holy Bible" - The only authority and source evidence for Christianity itself, and if it was used in a court trial it would easily be blown out of the water. There are too many contradictions to list, too many inconsistencies, too many flights of fancy and fantasy, and too many problems with its creation and transmission through time to list here. In very simplistic terms, you can find anything you want in this leather-bound dream journal to justify whatever beliefs you may have about anything. It has been used to treat women like crap, enslave people, kill people, torture people (including Jesus Himself). Sure, there are profound truths in there, but for every good in the Bible, there is something that is just evil and wrong and insulting to God.
5. Christians - I know some really good Christians. Really loving, compassionate, wonderful people who seek to honor God. But there are many self-serving jerks out there who do things in the name of God, or make decisions and choices after prayer and being "shown what to do" that make me sick. The percentage distribution of good versus bad people outside the Christian Community is probably about the same. There is no way that Jesus is involved in these people's decisions. There are good people, and bad people - but I can't stand self-righteous people that claim the authority of God and Jesus to do and say the things they do. And all too often, Christianity is a very self-centered philosohy and belief - this is what God is doing in MY life, here's how I am serving God, Jesus is in ME, praise God for all the good things in MY life, praying for the things I want - all the while dismissing or ignoring all the pain and suffering in the world other people experience.

I worship the one true God, Nature's God, the God of Creation, whose existence and character are found everywhere in his marvelous Creation. It is an insult to God to believe in such superstituous and self-serving nonsense.
