God hates religion because it is an idol. What's your definition of an idol then? Is not an idol anything that replaces God?
Religion is an idol whenever we feel that God approves of us for what we do or believe rather than for whom we trust in.

Yes, an idol is anything that replaces God. But as far as I know, no one worships Christianity.
Christianity is a broad term than includes the articles of the Christian faith and beliefs, the history of the Church, and the believers involved.
No one worships those things.
Yes, if you think something other than God saves you then that is idolatry. But revering the Christian faith, church and history is not worship.
Besides, that wasn't your point anyway. Your point was another cheap attempt to discredit "Christianity" which to you is anything other than the LCM.
BTW, by your logic LCM beliefs and Witness Lee's teachings can be viewed as religion as well. And judging by the way you fall all over yourself cheerleading and defending them, I'd say it's far more likely that you are guilty of religious idolatry.
Case in point: There is a whole crazy faction in China that basically worships Witness Lee. Haven't seen any that worship Billy Graham, Rick Warren or any other mainstream Christian. Just Lee. Why do you think that is?
