Do you really need Jesus...?

Yes, but not for what you think. The reason we need Jesus is because we can never be good enough to get into heaven on our own. That is the point of the epistle to the Romans. Until you read what the apostle Paul had to say on this matter, you shouldn't bug Christians about what you think they should be like.

As for logic, your presenting of the supposed "No True Scotsman Fallacy" as a Christian response is an example of another much worse fallacy: The Straw Man. You build up what you think Christianity is all about without going to the source: the Bible and Christian commentaries. In doing this, you build an opponent of your own making that you can easily knock down.

I suggest that you go to the Christianity and Gospel articles to see what the Bible has to say concerning what it means to be a Christian. As always, I will be praying for you.

May you and your family have a joyous Holiday Season.
