Christians and Christianity are two very different things. I've found Christianity to be a very good influence in my life, while Christians often infuriate me. I'd do well to remember that Christians are flawed by their very definition, especially since I am one.
I get what you're saying. I see Christians, Christianity, and organized Christian religion as three separate things, and it's only the latter that consistently does things to annoy me.
Christianity's got a lot of good stuff in it, and Christians who actually follow Jesus' teachings tend to be nice people, but those who use religion as an excuse to hate or a way to gain power or control people don't get any sympathy from me.
