I'm sick of the

"oh, you're a christian? you're such a great person!"
"oh they're a christian family? what amazing people"

"oh you're satanist? edgy and stoopid lel"
"oh you're atheist, so you don't have morals?"
"oh you're pagan? what cult are you in?"

Like, stop.

Christians have done and still do tons of terrible things, and just because someone is christian doesn't automatically make them a great person. In my personal experience, A LOT of christians are shitty people. Sadly, more often than not the ones i've met in person and online are either racist, sexist, homophobic/transphobic, or a mix of these, i've heard of christian rapists, pedophiles, and christians who commit violent crimes, their religion doesn't mean shit.

and same on the flip side

I've heard of and met some really great people who AREN'T christian, or religious at all for that matter, upstanding citizens and humanitarians. One of my best friends is a satanist and she has never committed a crime, she helps out at soup kitchens and animal shelters and maintains a job as barista, and lives a pretty eco-friendly life. My point here is, she's not christian but she ain't a bad person just because she isn't, and that's same for millions.

PLEASE DO NOT MISCONSTRUE MY WORDS HERE:
I am NOT saying ALL christians are bad or that ALL non christians are good, the entire message of this is, There's good and bad in both and whatever religion they do or don't believe in doesn't exclude them from this.
