Ask lang ko ani ha. Who are you to pass judgement on who is a Vaisnava? I also ask this: what are the rules of Vaisnavism, which you so purport to be so "learned" about? Aren't you a follower of a different philosophy? If you are, then you have no right to judge what constitutes a Vaisnava. Please, don't make the assumption you understand what a Vaisnava truly is. Because you are so far away from truly knowing what a Vaisnava really is. And to refute your so-called claim, I will quote the guru of Siddhaswarupananda Paramahamsa, A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami.
"Whether a Vaisnava is properly initiated or not is not a subject for consideration. One may be initiated and yet contaminated by the Mayavada philosophy, but a person who chants the holy name of the Lord offenselessly will not be so contaminated. A properly initiated Vaisnava may be imperfect, but one who chants the holy name of the Lord offenselessly is all-perfect." Purport to Sri Chaitanya Charitamrta Madhya Lila Chapter 15, Text 111.
You don't chant Krsna's names, yet you purportedly know what a Vaisnava is? How does one who is not a devotee of Krsna know what a Vaisnava(devotee of Krsna) really is? Stop your so-called judgement on what a Vaisnava is. You are not a Vaisnava yourself, so you don't have any right to judge what constitutes a Vaisnava.
