That's exactly my point. The definition of True Christians™ is constantly changing.
But how about the other point? All the things the Bible tells you to do but you don't do any more? Not harvesting crops for the first three years. Not wearing clothing with mixed fabric types. Women shouldn't talk in the church, you should murder apostates, etc, etc, etc. If Christianity is so unchanging and constant, then why don't you still do those things?
ETA: Ack.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
