I manage multi user systems and try to be on top of this and no, privilege escalation with a working public exploit are very rare. There’s quite a lot of CVEs with potential privilege excalation, but most of the time there is no real world exploit. And a large part of those are related to user namespaces in one way or another.

There is no way to define Christianity objectively. It’s extremely diverse and pinning down features is theology so your leaving objectivity.
The only thing left is to accept any group that identify as christian.
Yes the Joseph Smith story is colorful, but so is speaking in tongues, believing the earth is six thousands years old, that bread becomes the literal body of God in your mouth or the Trinity. Not all the group that claims to be christians believes all these things but you would recognize most of these as christians.
