Who decides whether a person or group are true christians?

No one specifically, but their actions decide.....

Who decides though based on the person's actions?

I'd imagine that theologically, nobody short of Jam Master Jesus would have the authority to do so.

Technically you could just use the definition of the term considering words have absolutely no meaning without an agreed upon definition.

I can't even see how anyone would find that billboard offensive. If it said "Christians are morons" I could understand, but it just says that being a good person doesn't require God. Christians can believe that atheists can still be good people.
If you say that the earth is flat, you are destroying centuries of evolution.

Jesus isn't 'god'? Would Jesus have been incapable of knowing if someone was truly christian or not? He is known as 'christ' after all.

So ignoring evidence is fine by you? If you keep sticking to that people most likely will keep sticking to their dislike of you.

I have to ask what you base that on. all you know about me is what I talk about on this forum. how much community service have you done, by yourself without anyone telling you you should. how much time have you spent with a disabled child trying to help them fit in to society. How much times have you donated blood, because it could save lives, what have you done that allows you to look down on me from a "moral" high ground.
I have called you an idiot and such because you ignore the majority of evidence because you it disagrees with your faith. if I called someone an idiot because they still believe Zeus lives on Mount Olympus even if I showed them no one was there would that make me immoral?

I have worked in a homeless shelter, donated clothes, donated money, and advocated for causes that are important to me. I'm no Mother Theresa but I'm pretty sure that's more than most do.

None, but if they oppurtunity arose I would.

I have not donated blood. :(

I would think it was rude to call that person an idiot... let them believe Zeus lives there. It makes no difference.

rude but accurate. and if that is all it takes for you to define someone as not a good person then the only good people are people that can't communicate at all.
