That man was not in any way, wise, shape or form Christian, jsyk. That kind of cheap phraseology gets thrown around by all kinds of people.

Evo-psychobabble is another favourite. Recylced pat arguments are favoured because you don't actually have to think for yourself (and no, before you leap in, that doesn't "prove" all religion is lazy and stupid, it proves that people who are lazy and stupid use lazy and stupid reasoning)

I'm in the UK, and I have known a lot of atheists laying in to religious people - inluding one obnoxiously eating a sandwich in front of a Muslim colleague during Ramadan whilst lecturing him on how his oppressive religion made him starve himself for no reason. FWIW, agnostic myself, I'd far rather spend time with him than her.

The "curing" garbage wasn't Christian, the Adam and Eve argument was, and chances are if someone in the U.S. is using the Adam and Eve argument, they are at least nominally Christian. This qualifies as being Christian in some way, shape, or form.

You don't know that. Being a Christian doesn't magically inoculate a person against being a raging asshole. If he was talking about "Adam and Eve," that implies at least a nominal adherence to some Abrahamic religion, so unless you're trying to fob him off on the Muslims or Jews, then it's reasonable to conclude that he was probably a Christian of some sort. Don't let's No-True-Scotsman this.
