No, I am horrible, I make jokes about people, I laugh at atheists, I drive to fast, I come up with fanciful stories, I blow bubbles, I collect teddy bears. Really, no one should ever trust me. Oh...and I adore Penguins.

You really shouldn't trust anyone over another person unless they have proven trustworthy.
Also, you have to realize that just because there are good Christians, that doesn't mean none of them are bad. I've met some horrible people who claim to be Christian.
Also, if you're talking about trust in terms of who is right about religion and such...of course the Christians are going to say you should trust them.
You shouldn't trust people more than others just for race, religion, gender, etc. You should trust them because they are who they are, not because they are what they are.

Well there are Catholics, Protestants, Baptists, Born Again Christians, Methodists, United Reformists, Anglican, Presbyterian, Seventh Day Adventists and Jehovahs Witnesses to name a few - so take your pick which one to trust above all others.

Trust is a choice, and an important one. Don't trust me simply due to my religious beliefs, but rather to whether or not I've proven to be trustworthy. I should add that I'm a Christian, but have non-Christian friends who I'd trust with my life.

Christians can be wrong or mislead. You can only pray for guidance and truth and keep your eyes wide open. Today the biggest thing to mislead people is "you don't need church! You can pray anywhere! Why pray? I only pray when I need something! Self Self Self Self bla bla bla bla" which is wrong! The world has become very selfish and in itself is very lost and can't find their way much less give advice as a Christian to you!
It is harder now to find the truth and the way but when you run into a person who does know the truth and the way something inside you says "this person does know the truth! What this person says makes sense!!" .. Pray that person comes into your life to guide you!

Trusting one master
M't:6:24: No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
M't:6:25: Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
M't:6:26: Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
M't:6:27: Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
M't:6:28: And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
M't:6:29: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
M't:6:30: Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
M't:6:31: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
M't:6:32: (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
M't:6:33: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
M't:6:34: Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
ONLY IN GOD, DO WE TRUST AND NOT MEN.

Absolutely not. You should test everything you hear from Christians by the Bible. It is the only thing that can be trusted completely.

No. Christians are all different. You can't force us all into one stereotype and then trust us all. Christians, as with all groups, have some folks that you can trust and others you can't.

Hard to know where you stand with anyone really, best to judge on how you percieve folks regardless of religion, gender, sex, age, race or any other variable.
Mind you........
You always knew where you stood with Vlad the Impaler ( usually not so much standing, but assuming the stance of a discarded cocktail snack at one of those suburban swingers parties), no pretence there.
As opposed to Val the Impala, who tends to jump around alot and is pretty flighty.

The only person you should trust above all others is God. Ask for his guidance and you will get it if you truly listen.
