I grew up going to a Protestant Lutheran Church. We never focused on fire and brimstone and hatred and what to do to a slave in the sermons at that church. We focused on generosity, forgiveness, servitude, etc. Again, "take what you want and leave the rest."
I follow the lessons of Mark Twain, Ben Franklin, Stephen Covey, Bruce Lee. All people with faults. Don't fully idolize anyone or any religion as all knowing and all encompassing. People use parts of the Bible to justify hatred they already have. The Bible was written and rewritten by numerous people. I love KATG, but don't agree with everything everyone says on the show. So I guess I have to hate the show because it contains parts I don't agree with.
