Scripture does not define typical Christian behavior; let's not conflate the two.

Exactly, thank you.
Blurring this line is exactly what irks me, if you're going to 'talk shit' about Christianity then use scripture. Otherwise, properly define that you're simply arguing against stupid people.
Don't say you know scripture, and then use anecdotes to show it.
Sin is well defined in the bible, it doesn't matter what people think it is or what it should be.
BTW, I'm aware the author didn't make this claim directly, but this notion is what irks me.
If you ask any Christian, and indeed they know the nature of the equality of sin, then these 'common' Christians that don't follow scripture and bash people can't exist.
If that's the case, are these people you are talking about being Christian, or just being people?
