Are bad Christians the young Earth creationists who want to abolish science in schools, as well as kill gay people, kill adulterers, kill children who disobey their parents; kill all muslims; who support Trump; are against vaccination?
And are good Christians those like Michael Moore and Stephen Colbert who want gay people to be able to get married, who love science and modern medicine, who don't like Trump?
Who is to say? Certainly I don't see "good" Christians criticizing "bad" Christians.
I'm not sure why you tied Christians with anti-vaxers? When there doesn't seem to be any real connection between the two. In fact the country with the highest percentage of antivaxers, France, is also one of the least religious.
Probably because old information is what forms most biases and from 1931 to 1952 Jehova's Wintesses banned their members from receiving vaccinations as well as some weird offshoot Abrahamic religions, English Quakers and Sweedish Baptists.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
