I'm a Christian and I think that most Christians are very nice but some can try to force our beliefs onto people and completely put them off Christianity and give them the wrong idea about Christians

I am a Buddhist and I must say that sometimes Christians confuse me.
I have many Christian friends that when they see someone doing something they do not agree with, they will say, "That is between God and that person. I have no say here." However, they do act when the actions of one are causing harm to another.
Then I see others that will tend to agree with "What I do is between God and myself and concerns no one else." Yet it seems that what another person does or believes is also their concern. For example, gays. They will move to deny equal rughts to gays because what they do is a sin. Yet fail to see that judging others in a sin in itself.
They say that one should "Love your neighbor as you love yourself; Do unto others as you would have others do unto you; Judge not lest you be judged" etc. But they do not put these wonderful phrases into practice.
I know that not all Christians are like this. But I have seen many that are. So they confuse me much of the time.

I am a Christian and I think a lot of different things about us. I think there are many Christians that do Christ a disservice, I think there are many Christians that simply use the term because it is family tradition, not because they are truly believers, and I think there are many Christians that are only Christian in name, not deed. I also think there are many Christians that Christ smiles down upon daily, that do great and mighty works in His name, and that love Him with all of their heart, mind, and strength. The Christian family is made up of the body of believers, and, just like every other family, there are some that you are glad to call brother or sister and there are others that you are embarrassed to be seen in public with!

I think all people are nice. But I dont like who are nagging type and mention Jesus 365 times in a 2-mins talk.
I also dont like those who are crazy converting others and hurting their feelings without knowing their interest or their opinion. I had a friend, who was so much brainwashed and pushed by her church that she lost almost all her friends, because the only she will talk is going to hell/heaven and conversion. feel like so nagging and irritating.
Else i love my other christian friends and they r nice people.

Christians are individuals, as everybody else is an individual. You just can't stick people in Category A or Category B and expect to be accurate. It's not that easy.

Most people claiming to be Christians don't live by the Bible. They are pseudo Christians that believe that going to church on Sunday morning and paying tithes will get them to heaven. There are very few true Christians on Earth.

I am not a Christian myself, but I respect everyone's right to freedom of religion. You're a Christian and that's just fine with me.
