Sure, Christianity has a lot of followers who are hypocrites, but that doesn't mean the religion itself is bad. The Bible can't be taken as fact word for word, but a lot of the philosophy in the Bible is rather harmless.
Take into consideration the Ten Commandments. The first three Commandments are religious rules, but the next seven are basic moral principles. It seems that people don't mind following these seven with the exception of the adultery commandment, however. If the other six are good concepts, why not the adultery commandment?
