What do you object to about Christianity?

I don't. I object to ignorance, through all forms of philosophies. See liberals and atheists for example.
 
I was forced into Catholic school from grades 4-7, worst years of my life and affirmed my hatred for all forms of organized religion(extortion).

The best part was we had these bullshit science textbooks that started out with the basis of why religion was more trustworthy than science and how the world was 7000something years old and man lived with dinosaurs because it said so in the bible. When it came to the tests for the book I never wrote down the religious explanations for questions and would get them wrong, I eventually got sent to the principal where I told her the book was full of shit and I had every right to put down what I believed.

They didn't bother me with that from then on 🙂

I think that whole experience was just an exercise for me on how to troll people. I finally convinced my parents to let me go to public school from 8th grade onwards (which I loved and excelled academically)
 
It's not so much I object to religion, just religious zeal. It's one thing to believe something. It's entirely different to force it on others. I became an atheist after 9/11 because I saw devout believes slaughtering innocent people in the name of God.

As for Christians, they're mostly harmless. What bothers me is their clerics, who tend to abuse the trust their flock puts in them. The Catholic Church especially. A lot of Christians in my experiences are hypocrites.

The Big Bang theory and Evolution immediately come to mind.

2000 years of persecuting scientists of every ilk also come to mind. They've gone from torturing scientists for the heretical theory that the earth revolves around the sun and have stood in the way of pretty much every scientific advance since then up to and including stem cells.

Creationism.

Oh and I also hate the completely unjustified self-perceived moral superiority.

First part, science hasn't disproven Creationism. Nobody knows for sure.

Second part, I hate that, too.

What I really hate is, people that are on a mission to make sure I have any form of religion, and people that are on a mission to make sure I know that they believe all religion is a joke/their atheist/whatever.

Screw 'em all. Believe what you want, and leave me alone.

I actually don't have too much of a problem with Creationism itself, but more with the intention behind it. It's clearly an insidious attempt to use pseudo-science to undermine a rigorous and well-developed scientific theory so as to further the Christian world view.
