message: The depiction here is not NPOV as it seems to suggest that catholicism and eastern orthodoxy are the only denominations derived from early christianity.  It also depicts restorationism as being derived from protestantism. It might also lead the viewer to believe that the distance from the center (where early christianity is) is in relation to a departure from early christianity, thus making it appear that the Assyrian Church of the East and restorationist religions are the furthest from the truth (i.e. early christianity).

message: *I am a Baptist and I know many people in my church who have studied the Bible their entire life and we believe the Bible word for word. But Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons are not really Christians. They are two completely separate Releigons. I dont mean to offend anybody, but its just like saying Baptist are Muslim. Its not true. To be a Christian means that you believe that Jesus is God's son and that he died for our sins and by believing this and asking for forgiveness you will be saved. I have talked to several of my Mormon and Jehovah's Witness friends and they dont quite believe that. They believe that you have to do good works to be saved. Once you've believed and have asked for forgiveness you will always be saved. Even if you kill someone you will still go to heaven. There is nothing in the Bible that says you can be "Un-Saved".

thread_title:  Why are Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons listed as Christians??? 

message: This page is in chaos, and its structure (and subcategories) should match List of Christian denominations.  Tb (talk) 18:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Compare with [[List of Christian denominations]]

message: I do not believe that diffusion is useful for this category. None of the other sub-categories of 'Religious denominations' are organized in this way. In all of them, the denominations are top-level members of the category, and do not require a searcher to guess where the denomination was founded, or what their theological positions may be. I will be removing the template to bring this category into line with the other equivalent categories.--Editor2020 (talk) 03:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: How do you want to find a denomination? By wading thur many hundreds (or more) of Christian denominations when only 200 can be put on this page at a time? There are most likely close to a thousand Christian denominations in Wikipedia. Other Religious denominations are not organized in this way because there are not near so many of them.--Carlaude (talk) 06:20, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I like this line of thinking. It would be nice to get a feel for a list on one page. Some pages, don't quote me, are thousands long. Surely that can be categorised? Show me a list that is not simply numbers that cannot be categorised into a tree... 86.41.254.11 (talk) 00:48, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

This is in the "Christian denominations list". Negative. I urm... Nop. If you delete this he will surely be banned but, know this, the idea will not be lost.

thread_title:  Removing diffuse template 

message: I opened a discussion on groupings in Christianity, of which there currently seems to lack a consensus on Wikipedia. The discussion might be of interest for followers of this talk page. Please see: Talk:Christianity#Denominations. Chicbyaccident (talk) 12:19, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
