RE: No True Scotsman

What this comes down to is this.....

Basically, a person can be claimed by Christians as long as they are doing 'good' (in the eyes of Christianity). As long as they stay on this path, that person one of them.
But if at any point in their life that person commits some atrocity in the eyes of Christianity, it can be claimed he was never really a Christian to begin with.

This just creates a loophole in the 'rules'. Like a get-out-of-jail-free card for the rest of the 'true' Christians.
