I truly believe that most of them have a well developed mental image of
Christ and if they behaved in accordance with keeping that image
present, the world would be a better place.

One could substitute "Humanism" for "Christ" above and achieve the same
result.

I don't think humanists have in common as well a defined internal
concept shared among them as Christians do with the concept of Christ.
At least not in my experience.
