So that's kind of a point I was making, was that to say "if they don't believe in x, they aren't a true Muslim" is like trying to say "if they don't believe in Transubstantiation they aren't a true Christian" (for an example). Islam is a large and diverse religion that is made up of many individuals that have form ideological groups that are also very diverse. Trying to lump them all in together is disingenuous. Hell, even when talking about Sharia, like Dill pointed out earlier, you can't just really broadly discuss adherence in Sharia as this negative thing because the differences in the way it exists are many.
