Decide if it's religion or faith you're conflicted about. Religion's always going to be imperfect because it's created by people. Even in the Bible, Jesus worked against the temples, where those temples were taking advantage of the people. Decide if you can live with that - by which I mean, don't let the crazy parts affect you the way you describe. If you can't, maybe you need to take a break from the communal aspects and figure out what your faith means to you, personally. Spend a bit of time in solitary prayer or something.

Figure out which bits of religion are what you believe people are saying, and which bits God - as you believe in him - might say. If you believe in a Puritanical fire-and-brimstone sort of God, I can't help you there. If you believe in a loving God, then bear in mind that Christ is really about love and tolerance. Would he really condemn an entire group of people, when he was the one who went around saving those that the majority condemned?

Hope you find something that works for you, nonny.

This! Helpful to actually read through all of the bits in red (if you've a red ink Bible handy), AND all of the bits in black around the bits in red, as a lot of the brand name churches (and even most of the off-label ones) tend to gloss right over the book as a whole, and only pick out two or three verses from the last hundred pages or so.
