It seems to me that there are few Christians who care about their own faith. Interesting.

Christianity is a relationship with Jesus Christ. He is our Lord and Savior. He died on a cross for all of the sins of mankind, He resurrected from the dead and offers us the gift of eternal life. To receive this gift of salvation all you have to do is believe in Jesus and follow the commandments

I find it to be generally disconnected with the history of the religion...and it focuses on who is right and who is wrong instead of just working on getting your own worship right--you mind everybody's business but your own. It tends to be...well false. Though it generally has good intentions sometimes, it just seems like too much attention is focused on being "THE TRUTH" instead as a way to G-d.
But then again it isn't really fair for me to judge, I can only get an outsider's view

Christianity is something based on what happened in history and people have a relationship with their Savior, Jesus Christ. Christians believe the Bible is true. The good news, gospel, is that God loves us all. All Christians should share the good news to everyone they can and baptize people in Jesus' name. Christians worship Him and take His communion in remembrance of Him + what He did for forgiveness of the sin of all humankind.

Christianity is...
a belief based on a collection of stories created by human beings to control the masses. Some of the ideas and morals these stories are based around are good, many are bad and no longer valid in todays' society. Christianity is a religion, and religion in general has caused far more pain and suffering on earth than good.

Jesus was a wise man who taught very excellent morals. But the Son of God he was not and he never performed any miracles. Modern Christianity is based more on the theology of Paul than Jesus; Jesus never taught that he was the Messiah nor did he claim that acceptance of him as a savior was the one and only path to Heaven.

Once again, 3 words:
God is love
Of course, no one knows what that means, but, hey, it seems to work for almost 1/3 of the world's population in one form or another.

Christianity, in it's inception was set up and designed of God to show us all the way; sadly "religion" has compromised our relationship with God and until we fully recognize it, it is not about "religion" but about our relationship with Him as we will continue to struggle with our multi Faiths.....

Misguided foolish arrogance, wistful thinking, wasted resources and foolish gambling for faded glory. (There I did it in a sentence.)

Belief in God and the salvation he offers thru his son Jesus Christ, who gave his life for all our sins. Belief being the key word.

I can do it in two sentences.
Jesus come into my heart and save me.
Then you follow Jesus the rest of your life.
A Bible can be very helpful to do this too.
