Wrong. Being an evangelical is ALL about what you believe, and who you believe in.
It also has a different start date than birth - so one friend of mine who divorced twice before becoming a Christian would be counted as a ‘twice-divorced evangelical’.
Being a Scot only involves where you were born.
Thanks. As a 50% true Scotsman I appreciated that link.
I can’t see how “No True Scotsman” applies.
Is a pedophile priest a “true” priest ? Not hardly, he’s breaking several solemn vows. Hardly “true”, at least to his word.
Is a “Mormon” governor who supports abortion and homosexual “marriage” a “true” Mormon ? Not hardly, as his church teaches that both those things are abominations - the first, murder, and the second, a grievous sin.
I wouldn’t call the first a Catholic, or the second a Mormon. If I call myself a car, that doesn’t make it true.
