A Quote from Reason for God

As you may know, I am reading through Reason for God by Tim Keller (left). I came across this beautiful quote in this book. I will allow it to speak for itself:
Pharisaic religion doesn't just damage the inner soul, it also creates social strife. Pharisees need to shore up their sense of righteousness, so they despise and attack all who don't share their doctrinal believes and religious practices. Racism and cultural imperialism result. Churches that are filled with self-righteous, exclusive, insecure, angry moralistic people are extremely unattractive. Their public pronouncements are often highly judgemental, while internally such churches experience many bitter conflicts, splits, and divisions. When one of their leaders has a moral lapse, the churches either rationalize it and denounce the leader's critics, or else they scapegoat him. Millions of people raised in or near these kinds of churches reject Christianity at an early age or in college largely because of their experience. For the rest of their lives, then, they are inoculated against Christianity. If you are a person who has been disillusioned by such churches, anytime anyone recommends Christianity to you, you assume they are calling you to adopt "religion." Pharisees and their unattractive lives leave many people confused about the real nature of Christianity.
WOW!
