If he says he's Christian, and gets his messages from a Christian version of God (which he has asserted is the case) then clearly he is a Christian. Unless, of course, he does something indefensible, in which case the safe response is, "Oh, but he's not a REAL Christian." I suppose the men who died fighting the Saracens to liberate the Holy Land were perhaps not as real Christians as one might have hoped, nor those who lit the flames around the girls from Salem and Joan of Arc. Maybe they were just misled bipeds or something. There are a lot of those around...
