A '''Christian in Name Only''' (abbreviated '''XINO''') is someone who professes to be a [[Christian]] in public, but holds beliefs so contrary to [[Christianity]] that they are "deal breakers." Such beliefs include being in favor of [[abortion]]s or [[special rights]] for [[homosexual]]s. A XINO might also sincerely believe in the tenets of Christianity, but commit an act so heinous that it negates their Christianity. An example of this type of XINO is [[Anders Breivik]].
