I guess because I'm surrounded by it, I'm used to it. I'm comfortable with it. It helps that the people I've met aren't the loud fundie type who will throw you under the bus as soon as they find out you don't agree with them. Christianity does seem less weird to me than islam, but I know it can be just as violent sometimes.

Also I don't like to have bad feelings about people I like who happen to be christian, as long as they aren't being vitriolic about it.
