You obviously don't get it do you? So a person who just celebrates Christmas without ever going to church just celebrating that holiday and not praying or not trying to have any connection to God is a Christian? No, these guys don't even try to be Christians. They just call themselves one cause they celebrate Christmas and maybe go to church one or twice a year. No True Scotsman doesn't apply here.
Seems Jesus began the no True Scotsman in its implication for Christians.
Matthew 7
21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
