I have asked many religious folks to define "True Christian". Normally. I get no response. Can anyone here tell me what a "True Christian" is?

A "true Christian" is just a "still Christian". It is a cop-out from admitting that somebody abandoned religion. I used to be a True Christian™, but once I left the flock I was no longer.

Easy.

A 'true christian' is no more and no less than someone who shares the same 'christian views' as the person describing them as a 'true christian'.

A 'true christian' is the way a christian describes someone like themselves.

Yes. There was only one and he died over 2000 years ago. Little evidence of his teachings or philosophy have been seen since, except in print.

Someone who believes that god is personal(understood as a person, with the qualities of a person), that jesus is his son, and that the holy spirit orchestrates their will... and that these guys are the ONLY avenues to truth and goodness

Probably a True Scotsman.

Do you think we will call us atheist or agnostic if we bothered about it?
