I don't either. I'm an atheist, though I was raised "Christian," and most self professed Christians aren't Christians, they're "Christians."
It's not about a No True Scotsman fallacy. They have a book. A rule book. A value book. A book that declares it supercedes the previous book on how to live your life if you want to be part of the Trinity's flock.
I see no mass movement of any self-identified Christian denomination that rejects the teachings of that book directly in favor of another book or source, yet very few identified American "Christians" even seem to attempt to follow those teachings, and it's not about trying but falling short of them, most of them seem to revel in living the opposite of those teachings all of the time.
