There is nothing wrong with the teaching of true Christianity, but the individual histories of some religious zealots have been less than perfect. Much pain has been caused in the name of Christianity.

"Christianity" today is not as primitive Christianity, the true Christianity.
There are exceptions, of course, but most persons which call themselves Christians, are not, because a true Christian obeys Jesus Christ´s commandments.
For example: one can read in the papers - "war between Christians and Islamics in Lebanon"; "war between protestants and catholics in Ireland"; war between American Christians and Islamics in Iraqi". All this breaking the most important commandment of Jesus: "Love one another as I have love you!" John 15:12.

The most negative aspect of Christianity is that Christians are by their very faith led toward hypocrisy. Not that all Christians are hypocrites, but we sometimes "run ahead" of where we really are. It takes humility to admit that we're not yet what we will someday be.

The term "Christian" was first used as negative insult to title followers of the Way: Jesus!

The old man of sin still haunts us and we still stumble yet that should not be a negative of true Christianity just me.

It's often misinterpreted and abused by the revolving door process. Too many are addicted to sin and Church is their clinic.However, you can pay for your sins in advance in the offering plate. There's cake, cookies and drinks afterwords. Kidding, each church is different but, in many ways still the same.I'm still confused why the Pope used to bother to call me. Someone stole my blessings and letters from him. Who would do that?

the main thing about general christianity is that it is mostly shown as a made made religion when it should be shown as a real relationship with a real God, when i go to church , i see alot of people smile and act like they care about you in church but in reality they are doing this for another reasons, either to belong and be noticed, or they are just acting nice so they can be pleasing to God or in other words "hey god i said hi to that person wheres my reward at?" and of course also certain people starting drama, backbiting, backstabbing, and etc...also it really suprised me that so called friendly church people would ask for my phone number and never call me at all....
the church leaders are not any different from the church members, they have hidden secret agendas they try to impose on you and force their opinons on you too, and shove it down your throat, so they can feel good about themselves and appear holy, or the other type of church leader is that he think he is superman, he thinks that he is going to save the whole world, so he gets pissed off easy and stressed out and overworked, thinking he has to do this all the time because god is making him do that, or the other leader who thinks he in holy because he can quote scripture all the time, or sing songs all the time, or chant "hallullejah"...."hey look at me, i am holy".
there are many different views on the bible , jesus came to set people free and introduce Grace, not to put fear and agendas on people, in fact alot of christian take the bible too literally in fact jesus said "i speak in mysteries can people can see and not understand" in other words - Jesus spoke in riddles, so just becuase he appear to say somthing does not necessarily means that he is talking that way, the bible says to ask god to help you interpret the bible and not the great theological church who spent 10 years at bible school (1 John 2:27).
