This is a pretty broad brush stroke you drew here, from your post #31. People described as evangelical comprise quite a large proportion of Christians. If you will withdraw your broad comment, I will withdraw mine.

That's why I phrased my statement using the word "if." I don't know whether the person I encountered reflects the majority or minority view among evangelicals, and if it is a minority view, is it a significant majority or so small that it really is meaningless. BTW, do you believe that Roman Catholics are Christians? Do you view Roman Cathoics as pagans?

I dislike the current practice of Evangelicals claiming exclusive title to the word "Christian". We have Catholics, various Protestant sects, and various Eastern Orthodox denominations, all of whom have objective claim to be "Christian"

This reflects either collosal ignorance or arrogance. I haven't decided which. Personally, I have never heard anyone express the idea that a Catholic is not a Christian.

I believe that anyone professing belief in Christ Jesus as Savior and Son of God is a Christian. Now, let me ask you: Do you believe that anyone not a Roman Catholic can be a Christian?
