cheek? Think about it. Yes, Judas betrayed Christ but that is because he is a human and all humans are faulted Is it really reason for him to be despised two millennia later? Besides, his actions set forth in motion the acts that would lead to the salvation of all mankind. Not only this, but Christ KNEW he would betray him. Have you ever thought that maybe Christ told him to turn him in? And even if so, after he did it. Judas realized what he did, felt remorse and tried to return the silver, and then he commited suicide.

I am a Christian. I ask the question because everytime I tell someone that he is my favorite biblical character, they are appalled.
 
Christians hold no grudge against Judas. I rarely think of the man. He made a choice and paid the price. Its more important that Jesus forgives him.
 
All humans deserve forgiveness. Jesus forgave him and we should do the same and try to learn from judas that betrayal is bad.
