Danes feel Obama is greater than Jesus

Someone like Scott Roeder is no doubt "convinced that his philosophy justifies or demands homicidal binges." Would that not then, by what you've just said, put him back in the "Christian" camp, even by your own argument?

(Incidentally, this rule would create a very odd set of adherents to any religion - the saintly plus the psychotic, and nobody in the middle.)

Not really. You can exclude the deranged, because their psychosis obscures their reason. A person may believe they are Napoleon, but it does not make it so. Roeder was a person who should have been committed for the betterment of society. His homicidal binge was inevitable whatever form it might have taken. He might just have easily been swayed to join ELF. There are (seemingly) sane people though that misrepresent Christianity (like Fred Phelps) where their selective reading and interpretations are just wrong.

I don't subscribe to the Catholic notion of Saint, with a capital "S", but I think the use of the word saint does describe what I would say Christian's aspire to. But, after all, we are only human and will make mistakes. The vegetarian will occasionally be tempted to have the juicy steak or hamburger now and then.
