Strange Expectations

I grew up in a Christian home.  I was almost always surrounded by Christians.  We went to church regularly.  I went to the church school for several years.  I taught at a Christian school for 3 years.  I was sending my boys to a Boy Scout troop that consists of Christians.  It wasn't until recently that I realized that I automatically assume someone is a Christian when meeting them.  I expect all people to have the same values that I do.  I even expect them to raise their children in a similar fashion.  I then end up surprised when someone says something unChrist-like or shows behavior that doesn't demonstrate having the same values.  I know that even though I am a Christian, I still sin and do things wrong.  That is not what I am talking about.  I am talking about flagrant anti-Christianity.  It also really surprises me when I see people that don't make their children mind, don't spank them, or who just let their children rule the roost.  I really don't know why this surprises me considering these attitudes and behaviors are becoming so common today.
