That's a point of view.
But most people who are culturally part of a religion that's been around long enough to have settled in properly are completely normal and you wouldn't be able to identify any such behaviour relative to other similar religions, agnosticism or atheism in their everyday life.
Their decency and morality is a matter of personal character and understanding, only their explanations for why and how are different, and we're all wrong about a lot of stuff.

@petealexharris@mastodon.scot My own brother, plus one of my close childhood friends both converted to catholicism because of the "honey trap" that ideology imposes - catholic females won't marry you unless you convert. I have had decades to observe what were once two open and progressive young men slowly adopt typical catholic materialism, a judgemental patriarchal attitude, gender stereotyping and prejudice against people perceived as outsiders. It is very sad indeed.
