As I understand the phrase, 'fifth columnists' refers to any of those within a group who sympathise with the enemy and so hamper the group. There doesn't have to be any direct contact between the enemy and the fifth column, or any coherent plan beyond general sabotage and the sowing of discord.
I do disagree with them, but there are other Christians I disagree with who do not devote their working lives to attacking Christians in the most public way they can (it's not hugely public, but that's not for want of trying). If you have a look t their website, you'll find that a good proportion of their articles are directly laying into some group of Christians for something-or-other, and mot of those which aren't are making indirect swipes.
