Bertrand Russell simply was wrong. The so called ‘morality’ of the New Testament comes directly from the Roman soldier cult of Chrisos and the affirmable elements were found in most cults in Eurasia.
Why is Christianity immoral? Because it is a cult of bigotry, the proof of which is what Christians believe happen to non-Christians. Therefore the spine of Christian values is based on prejudice and exclusionism.
Christian values when operationalized are articulated in witch burning , inquisition , holy wars , controlling women’s bodies, banning gay (others) marriage, brainwashing children into accepting superstition, slavery, colonisation, ethnic cleansing (eg Pagans) , anti Semitism, sectarian violence, terrorism (northern Ireland , Oklahoma), money farming, mind control (Jones Town) ect.
If the Biblical character of Jesus had taught good values the above would be impossible to have occurred.
The imperative in any set of religious values is not common good but the appeasement of an idol or deity. After all the character of Jesus in the bible was a human sacrifice by his followers to appease their god.
I certainly find Christian values offensive and would be shocked and dismayed if they were forced upon my children. Children to not belong to Christianity, to force Christian values upon children would be an abuse of human rights.
If you wish to attack me then please begin with telling me what Christians believe happen to non-Christians
