Not as baffling as this- https://newrepublic.com/post/174950/christianity-today-editor-evangelicals-call-jesus-liberal-weak
They clearly don't believe in Jesus. At this point they are just pretending to be Christians and destroying it from within, at least in the US. American-style Christianity still hasn't spread everywhere, yet.
They believe in the Jesus their pastor tells them about. They don't read the Bible.
But I'm not going to call them fake Christians. That's a 'no true Scotsman.' They worship Christ, so they are Christians. It doesn't matter that they don't worship the Jesus of the Bible. The Jesus of the Bible was fictional anyway.
I am not the one calling them fake Christians, God did
James 2:10 "For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it." The Bible said to take care of the poor and sick, fairly simple commandment, and they are failing to follow it.
