Your example doesn't make sense because Christians worship Christ.
Of course, that's clearly what the word means, but there are a lot of Americans who call themselves Christians, including a large number of preachers who follow Trump and worship money. They are putting young Americans off Christianity.
They worship christ too. Just because you don't like their behavior, it doesn't mean it isn't a fallacy to invoke an appeal to purity.
