No True Scotsman it is.

Well I’m an atheist, but it’s undeniable that Christianity used to be the dominant moral police in the west and it no longer is. If you stop enforcing morality with shame then people don’t follow it as much. Which part of that is wrong?

The morality that Christianity pushes is not necessarily what's best for society, or even better than what we have now.

Did I say it was?

Christian morality includes “don’t be selfish” as a high ranking rule.

Being selfish is against the religion, therefore selfish Christians are not implementing Christianity properly, or in other words they are being “bad Christians”.

I don’t think of morality as one thing, I’m not claiming Christians or well functioning Christians are “more moral” because that is a nonsensical framing. It would be like saying that frogs are “more animal” than goats. No, they are just different animals.

		> Being selfish is against the religion, therefore selfish Christians are not implementing Christianity properly, or in other words they are being “bad Christians”. So is a Christian also allowed to own a profitable business? Isn't that pretty selfish, instead of making only the minimum and using the rest to help the needy? Or is a profitable business OK, but raising prices by more than inflation isn't? Or can a Christian run a factory that dumps runoff straight into a river? "Being selfish" is itself poorly defined. The Bible is not much use - when it's not contradicting itself, it's vague. Christian morality is not one single thing, hence my "no true Scotsman" comment.
