Yes because some Christians are very closed minded. We have to be open minded and listen to others or we will never grow. God Bless!

There is not both saved and unsaved, because "there is no respect of persons with God", nor with the Son of God; Even the Herodians perceived that much about God & Son. So according to God & Son, all are saved (graced) or all are unsaved (lawed).
God our Saviour will have two things:
- all men saved(graced)
- all men aware what they're saved from: law
http://www.godshew.org/RevelatorySermons6.htm
Having a 'person savior' is a religious fallacy; For "Christ": "the end of the law": Romans 10:4 is "the Saviour of the world"(not some only): John 4:42; 1John 4:18. So 'you too can have partiality with an impartial God' is both a lie and an oxymoron... only for morons who make and love lies(laws).
Speaking of lies, Christmas has more lies(laws) attached to it than any other holiday.

To answer your question:
The reason it is easier to talk to the “unsaved” is because they haven’t already come up with preconceived notions about their ideas of Christ. You Christians never can agree on anything. Why? It is because you’re human.
You can’t ask a question and tell everyone that only certain people are allowed to answer the question. That isn’t what this is for. It promotes that “us and them” mentality and besides, you can’t stop other people from answering the question, so you are just going to frustrate yourself. It’s unethical. Maybe I’m being over dramatic, but C’MON. Why are you Christians always doing that? You never see the nonbelievers saying “atheists only please”. I’ve never seen that once.

I don't have trouble talking with real Christians, I do find that religious people who call themselves Christians drive me crazy with all the legalism and the semantics they believe is so important. Unsaved people, for the most part think that Christianity is about being a nice person, they are shocked to find out that it's a great deal more than that.

Unsaved? Do you mean unshaved?
If unsaved stands, unsaved from what from whom and by whom.
Many people that "believe" in christ are very stupid, example: those who fill stadiums and auditoriums all the time where a preacher presents for them: "The word of God", and does miracles on some crowd participants (previously rehearsed for the miracle), to entice all the bovine-like people present to glorify his "connection" with God and surrender anything he might desire from them, which is basically, money.
You might be reasonable to think on the posssibility that not all of those who are "saved" are necessarily people you could always trust blindly, morally and/or intellectually.

Let me ask, do we all know who we are in Christ? Being religious and knowing who you are in Christ are two totally different things.
There are so many out there who want to believe they know more then the rest about God. The thing of it is this, we should all be in agreement for one thing on the word of God as the Holy Spirit is testifying of the Word and Jesus constantly. When we get into reading the word without Him we run into trouble as the mind of the flesh will try to translate. If we understand the word of God truly it comes from Him and in that case there is no disagreement. Try to not fall into that trap yourself. Always pray when reading the word of God that God gives you the true meaning of what he says to you in Jesus's name and remember if you are not feeling loved and led of the Spirit when you are reading the word then pray some more. As for the others just keep praying for them also weather they seem right or wrong.
If people tell you something you have heard and feel that you are being told what you already know remember this. Where two gather in His name he is present. We can hear the same thing over and over and learn a bit more everytime so thank God for that. Just be sure it is of God.
Remember this too:
Matthew 22:36"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" 37Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[c] 40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
Galatians 5:22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 25Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.
1 Corinthians 13:1If I speak in the tongues[a] of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
1 Corinthians 13:4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
1 John 4:7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
God Bless!
