Saying mythologies and mysticisms is inherently implying a falsity to that religion/belief. So if you come into it already thinking that, let's see the mythology of this, let's see the mysticisms would you not find that? Cherry picking is a thing for a reason, you only select what idealizes your preconceived beliefs.

On a seperate note, you're saying that you don't believe in Jesus because the atrocities associated with him? I'll assume you're referring to slavery, the crusades, and a couple more "Christian atrocities". My first point on that subject is that how would the actions committed by followers of said religion determine the actuality of that religion.

You know you're real right? But you sometimes do wrong to others right? Yell at them, fight them, insult them, lie to them right? That wouldn't change the fact you're real would it? Same for what you're arguing.

My second point is that the "followers of Jesus" who committed said acts are clearly not followers of Jesus. Jesus told others to love thy neighbors not to condemn them, so in other words committed bad acts because Jesus would want them to is obviously a lie.

My third and final point is that Christianity was at first a purely African religion no? Jesus was born in Jerusalem a place in Africa, and spent a majority of his time in Africa. The idea of Christianity that I believe you have is the white man's one where Jesus (who I will now refer to as his African and original name of Yeshua) was a white male with blue eyes and brown hair. So before you go and say that African's root to Yeshua came from these atrocities they had them long before any Europeans did.
