Good
I can't believe some of the things I am reading though....
"As long as don't preach to others..................As long as they keep it to themselves................"
Wow
God says, " Go into ALL the world and preach the gospel"
It's our job to tell others the story about Jesus, That's what we're here for.
If we " keep it to ourselves" we aren't true Christians and others won't hear what it's all about!

I don't think its possible to have a consistent opinion on such a large and diverse group of people.
I think Christianity has a lot of good ideas as a faith but it is not right for me. If someone thinks of themselves as Christian and represents the values of that faith, good for them. I do believe that people should explore their religion and understand it in historical context as well as a spiritual context. So many people seem to miss the point of a lot of what was written in the Gospels. Still, it I think that there are no good or bad "Christians", just good or bad people.

TRUE Christians, Good, Make-believe or so-called Christians, Bad.

Human beings with the same capacity to do right or wrong as anybody else. In general though MOST try harder. Some supposed christians are far from it.
I've never heard of an atheist organisation going out on the streets to feed the homeless so there's alot to be said for christians.

Hmm I am not sure exactly what you are asking me here. What do I think of Christians as individuals or what do I think of Christianity as a religion.
Well anyones religion/faith doesnt bother me, no matter what faith that may be.
I have nothing against someone who chooses to be Christian, that is their choice and should be respected.
I dont like it when people try to tell me what I should believe or what religion I should follow.... that should be my personal choice, and no one in my opinion should push their views onto someone else.
I cant take to Christianity (no offence intended) but I cannot take the word of a book - which to me is a story book, that has been written and re-written by man. People make things up to suit themselves! - And this could very possibly have been done with the bible, I just cant believe in it myself.
But Christians in general as people.... they are just people like you or I.... some maybe nice people, some maybe not so nice. I'd have to meet them all individually to decide. I cant have much of an opinion on people who are shoved together in a group like 'Christians' or 'Jews' or 'Teenagers' - Everyone is an individual and you cant really judge who they are or if you like them if you dont even personally know them.

Just like all religions, you have the good points and the bad points. some think that they are better than the other one, and so on..... Who is right and who is wrong?......
Their are many ways to tell a story, But the ending is always the same. Love, peace and happiness for all.

there are alot of hypocrites out there that claim to be followers of Christ but they do not stride to live the life that Jesus had set as an example. these are the people who give Christians a bad name.
For all those who follow God with all their heart and the try their best to do as Jesus did. to love and show kindness to all. these are Christians, and in these people you can find no reason to fault them for they have done nothing more but show the world what love really is.
God bless you

I don't think you can generalize about any group of humans. There are good and bad in every group,no matter what religion,race,nationality,gender,political party,etc. I wish everyone would realize this and stop all the hateful posts.

Depends on the Christian!
I'm one and I think I'm a decent person! But there are a lot of crazy nutbag Christians out there who give the rest of us a bad name! So annoying! *sigh*

True christians are alright and they are right on track with the Lord but counterfiet christians like those of TBN are what is the cause of people turning away from God.

I think they´re generally good in the point of view of this world. I am one of these.
But, the most chistians are going to other side of God´s way, so, if I were God, I would answer, " Unhappily, some of them aren´t good."
