Which Christian denomination do you belong to?

[Papewaio]

Methodist by the answers that weren't least mine.

Otherwise a two timing worshiper of the wholly Trinity of Tim Tams and a Pastafarian.

[woad&fangs]

Another free will loving Methodist.

I'd describe myself as a Deistic Agnostic in real life.

Which Christian denomination do you belong to?
Your Result: Catholic


As a Catholic, you believe in the idea of a universal church, with the Pope at its head. You believe a strong hierarchy is necessary to keep order within the church, from the priests and bishops up to the Pope himself. Your theological views are likely to be very much conservative and based on tradition. Catholics believe in seven sacraments, and that the holy communion is the literal blood and body of Christ. In addition to this, they do not accept the Lutheran view of salvation through faith alone, or Calvinist views on predestination; but instead believe that good works are an essentital part of securing a place in Heaven. As a Catholic, you are likely to share many views with episcoplians, and to an extent perhaps also Lutherans, but otherwise your hierarchy and theological beliefs distance you from the post-reformation churches.

As it should be, anything else and I might of had to question my faith

The Heretical Episcopalians came a rather too near second, but the rest of the Heretics and liars all fell far behind The Church.

No.

Then you are deliberately religion-bashing and insulting some members by implying they are liars.

That is against forum rules as you well know, and if it happens again, suitable sanctions will be applied.

I trust I make myself clear.

[Rhyfelwyr]

Bopa, if neither of us religion-bash, could you point out your disagreements with reformed theology?

[Devastatin Dave]

I'm a Branch Davidian. I sometimes go by the nickname "Extra Crispy".

Ooooh, Dave, we should compare notes. I just joined up with the Peoples Temple and I've got this incredible thirst for Kool Aid ...

I find fault in the given questions. Indeed they are not representative of the various sects provided.


But a very nice try, to get one thinking they’ve been pigeon holed. CmacQ’s 14th Rule of Total BS; those that define their victim, win and those that believe this BS, lose.


The only proper answer to the question is; I am that I am ( or ehyeh asher ehyeh).

Do they have grape Kool Aid? I hear its great with a little dash of cyonide.

Man, I'm going to hell.

Aaaah, I see I took it a bit too far this time. I was in fact just being an idiot, I actually did not think anyone would take what I said seriously, it was just so stupid.

But I apologize for having gotten that wrong

Ok well, even though I was just playing the tosser, I will tell you why I do not agree with Reformists.

I am no great mind when it comes to theology, in fact I am an A-GRADE idiot when it comes to matters of The Church.
My support of it is simple, I was raised as a Catholic and have become completely naturalised to it, on top of this I fail to see how a group of men in the 16th century could possibly refute the power and the rightness of the one Catholic Church, the oldest form of Christianity in existence. I usually just end up seeing it ( The Reformation) as pure egoism and politiking.

[Kralizec]

Pentecostal
Baptist
Puritan

Lutheran
Calvinist
Episcopalian
Catholic

To be fair, the Catholic church's politicking and egoism were part of the reason that the Reformation occurred in the first place.

Fair point. I just don't like the Pope as absolute monarch.
