Let's dig into this:
" I think you do need to read and study some, but not necessarily all, to the point of becoming a priest. "
-- Here the statement is that one who studies should do so superficially but if he's determined by others to be a priest, is no good. The locus of behavior is the opinion perceived by others. This is circular logic based on what other people think and furthermore what one thinks other people think. What a mess!

"You read some. If the tone sounds parental and prescribtive, pushes to delegate decisions to other centralized predefined entities other than yourself, while meant for adults, you know it is bad."
- Here the logic is Marxist. Make yourself the authority because you can decide what's good for you based on primitive logic. This is the best way to disregard one's parents, teachers and traditions and prepare one for the steering necessary as a factotum.
- Meanwhile you stick with common and trendy language that disregards the Trivium of knowledge which is Grammar, Mathematics and Rhetoric... These are the first things to go in Marxist ideology. Inviting that a religious text has the authority of the supreme consciousness that your consciousness comes from is hilarious.

"In some cases you can just see that the followers look and dress, funny, unnatural, unpractical, more so than others, not the way that a lion or a bear would do. So you know the texts that cause that are bad.
Then you may read more if you want to compare with other bad things and understand which of them is worse."
- This logic is based on the humor of the non-conformist. Most certainly Marxist. The fear of not being like the cool kids, celebrities and pagans in the next town. Just doing things and behaving to match the rest of Babylon. Certainly this is road to losing the gift of life for the humans who are authoritarian and manipulating what is trendy, right, good and "woke".

For instance I only had to read a few lines here and there of Bhaghavad Gita, to understan it is no different from Catholicism, obviously copies from one another. Or from Islam if not Catholicism, did not go far enough to investigate which is closer.
- This last half of the last paragraph is bragging about ignorance. What translation of the Bhagavad Gita did you read? What few lines written by who? Was the Sanskrit available? Can you read Sanskrit? The answer is that it takes years of research and study to find the truth abd there has to be discipline not to be like an Animal chasing the next shiny thing or hedonistic pleasure. Reading the Bible, Quran, Bhagavad-Gita without understanding the original composition, words, grammar
