Boru

The No True Scotsman fallacy does not apply to Christians, or any other identity which has inclusive criteria, when you are upholding that criteria. No true vegan eats steak for example, and no true Muslim eats pork. It is such by definition regardless of what the person claims.

Whatever the definition of a Scotsman might be, it is true that no true Scotsman lacks that definition. Once you go beyond that definition, only then is it a fallacy. No true vegan goes to work, and no true Scotsman wears Nike.

How predictably schismatic of you.
