I often want to throw religion out of my life altogether and live a totally secular existence.

Then do... just for twenty four hours.

but does He/She really love you? Or are you just believing that to make yourself feel better?

...say no, He/She doesn't. You've been fooling yourselves...

I wish I could erase all that for her. I wish she could have grown up in my church, and at least learned of a loving God, before she was taught about a hateful one.

Stop fighting it for a time. Try to accept A god that hates you and mocks all your efforts to please and conform to It... Explore that side of your thoughts, go through them, and guaranteed you will emerge refreshed and amazed at how absurd they are...
Probably not the answer you expected, but another "god really,
really,
Really,
REALLY does love you both" sometimes just doesn't cut it... If God is petty enough to make you that way, then damn you for it, what loss is it to abandon such a moronic, cruel creator?
