No..... I saw you assert that Christian ™ "are taught to overcome, by allowing Christ to be their guide, instead of those things that drive most humans to bad behavior."

Since this "bad behaviour" is also perpetrated by Christians™ would you not also agree that this system of Christianity ™ is to blame in part for the ongoing bad behaviour?

No, Christianity is walking with God, it is a spiritual act that is to be reflected in the here and now. You are confusing the law with a relationship with Christ. So in actuality it is the lack of a walk with Christ, I'm not saying it's a complete lack, it is the temporary non Christian action of a Christian that involves a Christian in bad behavior. We screw up and sometimes royally, and we are to return to a better walk with God, this begins with repentance.

You have the wrong driving force then.

I try to allow Christ to be my driving force, so to speak, I'm not always successful, so repentance on my part helps to restore my walk with Him.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
