I don't get it. Christians haven't killed any Christians. There is the Klu Klux Klan (which I HATE even though I am a Christian.) that is an evil Christian group that muders those who do not believe. I do not think it exists anymore though. There are always evil groups in every religon. Those who force people to believe what they believe. This is wrong.
I hate to disagree, but in the interest of historical accuracy, I must. The truth is that Christians have killed many many of their fellows throughout the ages. This phenomena started on a large scale shortly after Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire and various Christian teachings were labelled as heretical. One notable group that was hunted by state sponsored Christianity but still exists today is the Coptic Church which is centered in Egypt. Unfortunately, this basic pattern continued, sometimes over religious disagreements (Protestants vs. Catholics in the reformation), others over purely political reasons (the American Civil War), and so on into the present day (a good recent example off the top of my head is Catholics and Protestants fighting and killing each other in Northern Ireland, although this has thankfully cooled down very recently). Some might argue that all/any of these groups are truly Christian, but short of redefining the term, I think we're stuck with the fact that Christians have killed at least hundreds of thousands of each other through history, which is quite remarkable for a religion that clearly teaches that we, "consider others better than ourselves." (Phil. 2:3) For the record, I am a Christian and quite ashamed of these parts of the churches history.

When Christians were killed for refusing to worship the Roman gods they became?

Their steadfastness in the face of persecution inspired many others and solidified their beliefs. Over time, these acts of faith contributed to the growth of Christianity, as stories of martyrdom galvanized the community and attracted converts.

Why do people always think that Christians are so perfect?
Many Christians actually acknowledge themselves as sinners, in no way perfect. Recent revelations about sexual promiscuity and even criminal acts by members of clergy in various Church denominations demonstrate clearly that Christians can no longer be regarded as inherently perfect, even if they were once regarded as such. It is also reported that Christians are over-represented in our prison systems, compared to persons of no faith. There are many good Christians in this world, just as there are many good people of other faiths and no faith, but if people think of Christians as perfect it is simply a misunderstanding of the facts.
