I'm uncertain from your post, though, whether you are troubled by Christianity itself (as in a set of beliefs) or more so the concrete manifestations of it in human institutions (the church) over history? Are your concerns primarily about regulation of behavior or do you find the belief in God, a trinity, God being made flesh, etc, inherently dangerous? In terms of this: "Christianity has always been to a very great extent about regulating behavior, about distinguishing right behavior from wrong behavior."
