1 John 4:1 compared to The No True Scotsman Fallacy and sophisms

[KevinM1]

Thomas,

I think you need to describe what you are thinking more fully.   There seems to be more behind what your are trying to get at, but we can't know that.

RoadRunner79,

You may think how I started the thread was enough for a person with enough experience to realize what I was saying.


You may compare in an example below.

Christian says: That person who calls themself a Christian is not really a Christian.

Atheist says:  You are wrong to say that someone who calls themself Christian is not a Christian.

Christian says:  Have you ever looked at 1 John 4:1 ?

In my experience, it's more like:

Christian says: That person who calls themself a Christian is not really a Christian.
Atheist says: I don't really give a fuck.
