Of course, any religion that involves blind faith can't be described as being logical.
But Christianity is a remarkable achievement on the way to perfect logic. It was originally built upon Abrahamic nonsense, but it strived to become compatible with logical thinking, in order to be receivable by cultures modelled after Ancient Greek philosophy and Roman pragmatic thinking.
Why do you think it appealed primarily to White European nations?
Please note that there has been in history a large number of scientists and great thinkers who were also Christian mystics at the same time (Blaise Pascal or Isaac Newton, just to name two of them). Many Christian priests were also great physicists and mathematicians.
You will never find anything similar among Jewish rabbis or Muslim imams.

Ethnic emotionalism is not logical. Saying " because he started it" is not logical, either. The topic of logical religions would of course preclude ones where implicit faith in things that defy the natural order is demanded and the threat " or else" is employed as a weapon against those who honestly dissent. Implying that whites equate to racism is itself a racist statement and unnecessary.
