If you want to know the gory details of .login, .bash_login, .profile, and .bash_profile, and which ones get invoked when and in what order, do "man bash", read the man page, and be prepared for a good cry. I don't think anyone is dismissing your intellectual curiosity, but it's a real mess and anyone writing an explanation would just be recopying the stuff in the man page.
