You insinuated that those who are in need of a good mocking are only "alleged Christians". Christianity consists of the enitre body of believers. All of us are flawed men. All of us are in need of an occasional mocking. It keeps us humble. But just because we do some things that are subject to ridicule does not separate us from Christ.

Okay, okay, let's not get bent over our differing use of nomenclature. What you call 'Christianity', I call 'Christendom'. I was referring to 'Christianity' as the theological and philosophical teachings of Jesus, and not the body of believers known as Christians. One clearly is mockable, the other is not. Sorry if I misunderstood your original post - hopefully, I was the only one.
