Who said anything about Christianity?

It was adapted for the situation from No True Scotsman, admittedly partially because I grew up Christian and have heard this sentiment before (a close relative of the pervasive Prosperity Gospel), but mainly because we are discussing spirituality. I am calling you a Christian in this instance no more than I would have been calling you a Scotsman with the traditional wording. Regardless, the fallacy would be there even if I did mistakenly pin you as a Christian.

Suffice it to say, I find it cruel and absurd to believe that someone suffering from depression must not really have a relationship with their god, and I urge you to reconsider your beliefs in this matter.

Suffering is the nature of life.

We all suffer. To be born is to suffer.

Just how many people who call themselves Christian are actually practicing and living the message of Christ?

If they truly had faith in a higher power they would realize how selfish depression is. Of course we all become depressed from time to time.

To have real faith is that powerful. It is a cure.
