unchristian

Lacking religious charity

Unchristian describes behavior or attitudes contrary to Christian values—lacking charity, compassion, or forgiveness: It would be unchristian to turn them away.

The word often appears as mild moral criticism, implying someone has fallen short of basic decency rather than making a theological point: That's an unchristian thing to say about your neighbor.
