The fact that some people claim to be Christian without actually following Christ does not mean there's no true Christian. It's entirely possible for you to choose to become Christian.

That's not what a no true scotsman fallacy means. It's a fallacious way to deflect people from being a part of a group. It is not a statement that no such group exists.

The only value we can have in life comes from God. When someone gives you a Bible verse, that is likely the most valuable thing you receive all day, if not all year.

Then it's quite odd how I have value in my life despite it being secular. It's almost like there are many sources of value in life beyond religion.

Thank you for all of this thought-provoking conversation

You are welcome. And thank you for keeping this as civil as it has been.

I pray you may yet find God

Like I said, you're not the first so I wouldn't bet on that.
