Remember, some of the strongest arguments for American chattel slavery were made by Christians.
Christian schools were the last legally segregated schools in the country. You could still get kicked out of Bob Jones university for dating someone that the university decided was a different “race” at least into the 90s.
Quakers are mostly actually a force for good in my experience, Episcopalians have some good stuff going on… And you notice how those are the dying congregations?
The core of Christianity was never good works, if it was the Quaker and Episcopalian sanctuaries would be overflowing. That’s the outlier.
The major goal has always been control and coercion, look at which churches are growing.
