There are people in the world who aren't necessarily Christians, but they're just naturally nice people who do a lot for other people. Those people will almost always be prosperous people.

What I love to say when people ask me about being a Christian, I always say, 'Christians aren't perfect.' They're probably some of the worst people on the planet. They just know that they need Jesus. That's the only difference.

It's impossible to be a good Christian. If you think it's easy to be a good Christian, then you're not really trying hard enough.

I'm a very bad Christian, but I am a Christian.

Believe it or not, Christianity is not about good people getting better. If anything, it is good news for bad people coping with their failure to be good.

Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens.

I think some people who say they're not Christians can behave in a more godly fashion than people who call themselves Christians.

A Christian is nothing but a sinful man who has put himself to school for Christ for the honest purpose of becoming better.

In my run-ins with Christians... I find that they really are good moral people. And we overlap on everything, and they don't seem to be the kind of people that are waiting to hear voices to tell them what to do.

As a Jew reading about Jesus, I thought, 'He's a pretty good guy.' It's the same conclusion Monty Python drew in 'Life of Brian' - if people actually live what he did, it would be a pretty good world. But Jesus and Christianity have a tenuous relationship at best.
