Well I am not Christian but Muslim. It is normal in every religion to have a minority of followers of a particular faith to express their views in extreme fashion. I am afraid these extreme ideas do indeed tarnish the reputation of religion and then the public begin to stereotype. Followers of a particular faith, must understand it is acceptable to present your views but in a manner as such not to offend or cause discomfort for the public. End of the day, a religion is for an individual to follow and being too extreme in your religious views will lead to forcing others to accept your point of view. From what I learnt, all religions do not teach us to go around and force religious ideology upon others. Everyone has free will to choose whether to follow a particular faith or not. Those who you describe as ''crazy, creationist, arrogant'' are those types of individuals who tarnish a religion reputation. I think it is very important to uphold a religion's true status and not be tarnished by these extreme individuals. This could result people into stereotyping and discriminating those who follow a particular faith. Religion plays a role in society whether some people follow it or not, therefore everyone should try at least get the correct perception of that religion so that it does not cloud their judgement.
