I don't think we should no true scotsman christianity. Sure they ignore their theory but everything else except theory is consistent, real christianity is precisely that one we see.

Actually Existing Christianity

They ignore their theory AND their practice, and do things that would be anathema to older christians. They're still christians my point is that christianity now isn't as actually influenced by belief in god and spirituality than islam is.

AND their practice

No, practice is by definition what they actually do.

But they don't do charity and stuff which is what their theory entails

Only if you assume that practice is only practice if it's in accordance with theory. In theory they should practice charity and forgiveness while in real practice they embezzle the money and rile up the bigots (not in the OP case apparently but mostly).
