    Another argument for renaming the “No True Scotsman” fallacy to “No True Christian” to make it more self-explanatory.

      I know that the name of the fallacy comes from an example, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a scotsman invoke “No True Scotsman”. I’ve heard countless Americans invoke it though, and one side does it far more than the other.
