Did you study Hitler and Nazi Germany - GENOCIDAL MANIAC! You're a horrible person for wanting to kill Jews. Don't deny it, you already said you studied Hitler in school, so obviously this means you're just like him.
Yes, that's exactly how you sound.
How about denouncing hypocrites ("professes to have a peaceful God that asks His adherents to act peacefully, then it does itself and everyone else a disservice by continuing to accept scripture that glorifies destruction in God's name.") rather than the actual religion. You'd be right in Jesus' territory.
Mathew 23:23 "Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cummin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former. 24You blind guides! You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel."
The rest of that Chapter is pretty much the same, with Jesus rebuking the Pharisees for their hypocrisy.
